HC Deb 12 February 1985 vol 73 cc148-9W
Mr. Loyden

asked the Secretary of State for Social Services when he last met the chairmen of the gas and electricity boards; and what matters were discussed.

Mr. Whitney

We maintain frequent contact with the British Gas Corporation and the Electricity Council and electricity boards about ways of helping people on low incomes to avoid disconnection of their fuel supply. Recently I met the financial director of the London electricity board to discuss ways of improving liaison.
