HC Deb 13 December 1954 vol 535 c99W
110. Mr. Hurd

asked the Minister of Fuel and Power if he will give a general direction to the British Electricity Authority and the gas supply boards when they have land for sale to advertise the sale of this publicly so that the best price may be obtained.

Mr. Joynson-Hicks

The Authority and the boards seek whenever they sell land to obtain the best price possible, and in all suitable cases proceed by public advertisement.
