71. Sir F. HALLasked the Minister of Transport whether, in view of the serious financial questions which are involved in carrying out the schemes under the Electricity Act, he will arrange that one of the five Electricity Commissioners to be appointed shall be an expert in finance of the widest possible experience, and that in making the selection he will carefully consider as to the advisability of not limiting the choice to the electric supply industry, provided he can obtain thoroughly good business qualifications elsewhere?
§ Sir E. GEDDESIn completing the Electricity Commission, I am having special regard to the considerations mentioned by the hon. Member.
