Presented in this Appendix is Baird's 1944 memorandum to the Television Committee (sometimes known as the Hankey Committee after its Chairman, the Right Hon. the Lord Hankey). This has not been previously published and is reproduced here verbatim. The document, which responds to several questions posed by the Television Committee, is of some historical significance since it records the last known views of the television pioneer on the post-war development of television.
