Proceeding contribution from Baroness Rawlings (Conservative) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 3 March 2011. It occurred during Ministerial statement on News Corporation/BSkyB Merger.


News Corporation/BSkyB Merger

My noble friend Lady Bonham-Carter is worried about continuing openness. News Corporation shares in Sky News will be unchanged as a result of the merger, and the independence of Sky News will actually be increased. It has an independent board and a new independent chairman, and we hope that they will keep the high quality.
