HC Deb 30 March 1965 vol 709 c202W
34. Mr. Carmichael

asked the Minister of Power if he will give general directions to the area electricity and gas boards that when they fix and publish maximum prices for the resale of electricity and gas they should also issue gummed labels for displaying on all private meters stating this maximum; and that the proper display of this label should be a condition of supply of electricity and gas by the area boards.

Mr. John Morris
