HC Deb 29 July 1983 vol 46 c733W
Mr. Higgins

asked the Secretary of State for Industry what action he is proposing to take or, the Monopolies and Mergers Commission report on electricity boards' charges.

Mr. Fletcher

In its report on the London Electricity Board's retailing activities the commission concluded that the course of conduct investigated did not operate against the public interest. But it made a number of suggestions which the Department of Energy is currently discussing with the board and the Electricity Council.
