asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will arrange for the publication in the Board of Trade Journal, or in any more convenient form, of the statistical returns made by electric supply companies to the Electricity Commissioners?

I have been asked to answer this question. For some time past the Commissioners have been engaged in compiling administrative, engineering and financial statistics relating to electricity supply undertakings in Great Britain. The compilations are now practically complete and the Commissioners expect to be in a position to publish the statistics within the next month or two.

In what form will they be published?

I am not quite sure about that.

Is it not a fact that publications already exist ties containing most of the information that in is required?
