Digital Switchover (Disclosure of Information) Bill

Although we should not get into such a debate, I hope that my hon. Friend thinks that sufficient funding will be made available for all who will be able to claim for assessments. The borders area will be the first to switch over. It will be a guinea pig not only for the switchover itself—we will have to see who cannot get television after the switchover date—but for the assessments made in the lead up to the switchover, including during the prior month.
