asked the Postmaster-General whether he is aware that the B.B.C. have announced that their publication "London Calling" is to be increased in size; and whether, in view of the reduction in allocation of newsprint of daily papers, he will take steps to ensure that a similar reduction is effected in the case of this publication.
