HC Deb 05 November 1930 vol 244 c862
66. Viscount ELMLEY

asked the Minister of Transport whether any experiments in electrification are being carried out in Norfolk; and, if so, will he give particulars?

Mr. HERBERT MORRISON

With the assistance of a grant through the Unemployment Grants Committee, the Corporation of Norwich have undertaken to carry out an intensive scheme of rural electrification over an area of about 125 square miles. The Electricity Commissioners propose to publish a description of the scheme, and this is in course of preparation.

Viscount ELMLEY

Can the Minister say when that report will be published?

Mr. MORRISON

I could not say, but when I know I will advise the Noble Lord.
