Only switchover will allow digital terrestrial television to reach the same level of coverage as analogue.
In addition to allowing the digital terrestrial network to be extended, other benefits from switchover are worth highlighting.
I welcomed the announcement at the end of last week of new technology that will deal with one of the obstacles to the switchover.
It is not possible to say what prices would have been set had the switchover system not existed.
We still have not really had field tests for switchover in a small area to establish how to do it.
There will be a considerable increase in coverage when analogue switchover occurs.
We will consider whether any specific measures are needed in this area before switchover begins.
I must emphasise that the switchover will be emphasised on those criteria, not on dates, although we have forecast a date of 2006–2010.
