BROADCASTING CONTROL
BOARD OF SEVEN MEMBERS. [Per Press Association. — Copyright .1 WELLINGTON, This Day, Before leaving for Australia, the Postmaster-General, the Hon. A. Hamilton, issued a statement regarding proposed amendments to the Broadcasting Act. “It is proposed to amend the Act by enlarging the board from three to seven members,” said the Minister. “With a board of seven an advisory council will be unnecessary. The present regulations regarding controversial matters will be withdrawn and discretion, in this matter left to the judgment of the board. Broadcasting in New Zealand will therefore be under the control of the board, except in such matters as licensing and wave lengths, which necessarily must be retained by the Government.
