HC Deb 10 November 1938 vol 341 c293
49. Mr. Ede

asked the Prime Minister whether time is to be found this Session for legislation on the subjects dealt with by the McGowan Committee on reorganisation of the electricity supply industry?

The Prime Minister

In view of the heavy programme of domestic legislation already before us this Session, I regret that I see no prospect of time being found for the legislation to which the hon. Member refers.

Mr. T. Williams

Is the Prime Minister aware that the Government, by their attitude, condemn large areas of agricultural land to having no electricity?

The Prime Minister

No, Sir.
