HC Deb 03 April 1947 vol 435 c347W
Sir W. Darling

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power what is the total value of local authority electrical undertakings in Scotland; and the total amount of debt thereon.

Mr. Gaitskell

No information is readily available on the total value of local authority electricity undertakings in Scotland. The loans outstanding (less the balance on sinking funds) for the local authority electricity undertakers in Scotland amount to approximately £9,500,000 at the end of the year 1944–45, which is the latest date for which figures are available.
