BBC Reporting Of Parliament

EDM number 1065 in 1995-96, proposed by John McWilliam on 27/06/1996.

That this House recognises the real contribution to informedreporting of the House's proceedings provided by BBC Radio in 'Yesterday in Parliament' and 'Today' and the television programme 'The Record'; and is deeply concerned about the proposals to make six out of the 16 journalists who presently contribute to these programmes redundant, resulting inevitably in a serious reduction in both quantity and quality of radio and television reporting of Parliament.

This motion has been signed by a total of 76 MPs.
