120. Mr. E. P. Smith

asked the Minister of Works why his Department reduced an estimate, submitted by the hon. Member for Ashford, for the laying on of electricity to two cottages at Stone-in-Boney, Kent, not owned by him but ocupied by two of his employees, from £38 to £30.

Mr. Tomlinson

An application for a licence for £29 18s. for the laying on of electricity to these two cottages was made to the Tenterden Rural District Council who issued a licence for £30. There was no intervention by my Department.
