HC Deb 13 December 1926 vol 200 c2721

Lords Amendment:

In page 9, line 9, at the beginning insert: (5) Where the price to be paid for electricity by or to the Board is to be calculated in accordance with this Section, the amount to be paid by or to the Board for a supply in any year shall be ascertained as soon as practicable after the end of the year of account, but.

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL

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

This is little more than a drafting Amendment, and directs that the price is only to be ascertained at the end of the year of account.

Subsequent Lords Amendment agreed to.

Lords Amendment:

In page 9, line 25, leave out from the word "Board" to the end of the Subsection.

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL

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

It is consequential on the one accepted just now. There will no longer be any need to provide for a price ruling pending the determination of the question, inasmuch as we are arranging that a yearly adjustment shall take place.
