HC Deb 02 December 1937 vol 329 c2265W
Mr. Quibell

asked the Minister of Transport whether he will take powers to compel landowners to permit the introduction of electricity to the houses and villages on their estates when such landlords have without reason given refused to permit such introduction?

Mr. Burgin

My attention has been drawn to a case where such a position has arisen, but I have no evidence that such cases are of frequent occurrence or that legislation to deal with them is necessary.
