HC Deb 13 December 1926 vol 200 cc2721-2

Lords Amendment:

In page 15, line 12, leave out from the word "shall" to the word "be" in line 13.

The ATTORNEY-GERNERAL

I beg to move, "That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said Amendment."

This is very little more than a drafting Amendment. It is in order to remove the difficulty of applying the principles of the Second Schedule, which are founded on the cost of production of a particular station. The effect of this will be to leave the Commissioners to produce the method of ascertaining the fixed and running charges.

Lords Amendment: In page 15, line 19, leave out from the word "ascertained" to the word "shall" in line 22, and insert the words "in accordance with such principles as may be approved by the Electricity Commissioners or the tariff may be framed in such other manner as may be determined by an order of the Electricity Commissioners: but such an order.

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL

I beg to move, "That this House doth agree with the Lords in the said Amendment."

This Amendment carries out the purpose required in the previous Amendment.
