argument of R.T.V.

If so, I would only suggest

the drafting amendments I have made in pencil to

paragraph 14.

3. Paragraphs 33, 34 and 35. These paragraphs seem

to me to be in order. If anything, they put the

concern of the Legal Advisers perhaps a little too

strongly.

Further amendment proposed in paragraph 6 at (32) on

HKK 16/2. Although this is a matter for the Board of

Trade, it seems to me that section 48(3) of the United

Kingdom Copyright Bill 1956 does cover programmes

originated by the operator of the diffusion service.

I am not sure that the proposed amended modification makes

the position any clearer. I do not understand the

distinction the draftsman appears to be making between

"transmitting" and "distributing". I would leave

section 48(3) as it is.
