§ Mr. DORANasked the Under-Secretary of State for Air whether he will consider making all aerodromes under the control of the Royal Air Force independent of outside supplies of electricity?
§ Sir P. SASSOONThe course suggested by my hon. Friend has been considered; but in the interests of economy it has been decided to obtain electricity supplies from the grid or local distributing authorities where this is the cheaper, and gradually to instal stand-by plants where necessary, to provide against a failure of the outside supply.
