Does the Parliamentary Secretary realise what, is involved in the last few lines of the new Clause, which gives a very wide discretion to the Electricity Commissioners in any case of dispute or difference of opinion between the authorised undertakers and the Commissioners? Apparently there is no appeal whatever against the decision of the Commissioners. There are 40 local authorities around Load on who view with much concern the fact that there is no such appeal, in case the Commissioners might take a very strong line, and I do not know if that point of view has been represented to the Parliamentary Secretary.
