HC Deb 22 July 1946 vol 425 c280W
34. Lieut.-Colonel Corbett

asked the President of the Board of Trade what types of electrical equipment are being exported from this country; and to what extent it is estimated that such exports are delaying the spread of electricity to country districts.

Sir S. Cripps

Full information as to our exports of electrical equipment is published each month in the Accounts relating to Trade and Navigation of the United Kingdom. I am not aware that such exports are likely to cause any delay in the spread of electricity to country districts.
