HC Deb 11 May 1967 vol 746 c283W
Mr. Ogden

asked the Minister of Power if he is satisfied with the control the gas boards have at present in regard to the resale of domestic gas supplies; and if he will introduce legislation to make the resale of domestic gas and the installation and control of sub-meters the responsibility of the area gas boards.

Mr. Marsh

Area gas boards fix and publish the maximum prices at which gas may be resold. I have no evidence that these prices are not being observed and see no reason at present for legislation to give the boards additional powers in this field.
