HC Deb 21 January 1974 vol 867 c221W
32. Mr. Iremonger

asked the Minister for Energy if he will rearrange the hours during which hairdressers may use electricity so as to provide a continuous period throughout the working day.

Mr. Patrick Jenkin

I regret that I am unable to do this. To allow a continuous period throughout the day would increase electricity demand during the midday period when there is already a peak load on the system.
