Digital Britain

Proceeding contribution from Ben Bradshaw (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 16 June 2009. It occurred during Ministerial statement on Digital Britain.
It will remain on FM for some of the new local and community radio provision that I outlined. We will consider providing help in the same way in which we did for digital television switchover. However, when we take into account the way the prices for digital radios are decreasing, and people's behaviour in the past with digital switchover for television and the change from black and white to colour television, I suspect that we will find that many people are already listening to digital radio. May I suggest to the hon. Gentleman that, rather than a lot of useless jumpers for his family at Christmas, he buy them a digital radio each? That will help along the way.
