HC Deb 22 July 1969 vol 787 cc318-9W
44. Mr. Hooson

asked the Minister of Power how many farm houses and farm cottages in the five rural counties of Mid-Wales, namely, Montgomery, Brecon, Radnor, Merioneth and Cardigan, still do not have mains electricity service; and what steps he intends to take to remedy the situation.

Mr. Freeson

No figures for farm cottages are available, but information collected for March 1967 showed that about 1,200 farms were not connected to the mains supply. The boards tell me that all of them have been or are being offered terms for connection.
