Proceeding contribution from Baroness Jowell (Labour) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 14 March 2006. It occurred during Ministerial statement on BBC White Paper.

BBC White Paper

I thank my hon. Friend for that question. This proposal has widespread support in the House and I urge Members with a constituency or regional interest to make their views well known to the BBC. The impact of such an approach on the economy of the north-west and Greater Manchester is well demonstrated, and there are many reasons why the BBC should rise to the challenge of spreading venture capital for creativity way beyond the M25.
