At the last meeting of the Hutt
Valley Electric Power Board a letter was received from the Electricity Controller, Mr. F. T. Kissell, stating that ho had received complaints concerning the replacing of gas appliances with electrical equipment in cases where the gas equipment was considered due for replacement.

Where dwellings were connected to a gas supply any application made by occupiers of such dwellings for electric cooking, baking, or water-heating, should be ( declined as long as the control order was in force.
