Part of Oral Answers to Questions — Electricity Supply – in the House of Commons at on 18 May 1943.

He will also recall that there were complaints about minimum charges being excessive when they were about 15s. per quarter. An order was made later altering that to 25s. a year, which was certainly an advantage to small consumers.
