HC Deb 28 July 1931 vol 255 c2095
36. Mr. PERKINS

asked the Minister of Transport whether he is aware that the village of Cranham, near Painswick, Gloucestershire, is not yet supplied with electricity by the West Gloucester Power Company; and whether he will ask the Electricity Commissioners to allow the city of Gloucester electricity department, who already supply electricity to a place 1½ miles away, to extend their territory so as to include the village of Cranham?

Mr. PARKINSON

I am informed that the Electricity Commissioners are already investigating the question whether a supply could be given to Cranham from the mains of the Corporation of Gloucester and are at the present time in communication with the Corporation on the subject. I will inform the hon. Member of the results of these investigations as soon as possible.
