Abstract :
Colour transmission of television programmes is now far advanced, but broadcasting authorities and manufacturers have still to agree on a universal standard. The Postmaster-General announced in Parliament on the 14th April that no decision would be taken on the system to be employed until after the meeting of European experts next April. If no decision on a common system is reached then, the United Kingdom will probably adopt the system of its choice so that a regular colour-television service can begin in 1967.
