HC Deb 06 December 1932 vol 272 c1582

Motion made, and Question proposed, "That the Clause stand part of the Bill."

The ATTORNEY-GENERAL

This Clause was inserted for the benefit of the South Metropolitan Electric Tramways and Lighting Company, whose tramways will be transferred, but whose lighting undertaking would have remained with the Company, but the Company have now sold their electricity undertaking to the Joint Electricity Authority, and therefore the necessity for the Clause no longer arises.

Question put, and negatived.
