HC Deb 20 November 1978 vol 958 c439W
Mr. Hugh Fraser

asked the Secretary of State for Prices and Consumer Protection whether, bearing in mind that many electricity prices are cheaper in the United States of America than in the United Kingdom, in spite of higher United States prime and labour costs and longer distances for distribution, he will now refer pricing policies of the British electricity supply industry to the Price Commission for investigation.

Mr. Maclennan

My right hon. Friend will keep this suggestion in mind.
