HC Deb 21 June 1966 vol 730 c31W
49. Sir W. Teeling

asked the Minister of Power, in view of the recommendation which has been made to him by the South Eastern Electricity Consultative Council regarding a need to protect tenants by legislation, if he will now make it an offence to resell electricity other than through a certified meter: and whether he will also apply such legislation to gas meters.

Dr. Bray

Legislation to this effect already applies to gas meters. As regards electricity, it has already been made clear that further action will be taken if the evidence shows this to be necessary.
