HC Deb 26 May 1937 vol 324 cc268-9
34. Mr. Kelly

asked the Minister of Transport whether, in view of the delays consequent upon the Coronation, he will extend beyond 1st June the period for replies to the document issued to various electrical and local authority associations indicating the Government's provisional conclusions as to the reorganisation of the electricity supply industry; and whether he will consider the advisability of publishing the document?

Mr. Hore-Belisha

I am prepared to extend the period for making representations to the end of June. I do not propose to publish the document.

Mr. Kelly

Is there any likelihood of the right hon. Gentleman changing his view about publishing the document?

Mr. Hare-Belisha

None whatever.
