asked the Minister of Transport if it is proposed that the grid should be carried on to Carmarthen from Llanelly; and if any steps are now being taken to supply electrical energy to the rural parts of Carmarthen?

With regard to the first part of the question, I understand that representations on this matter have been made to the Central Electricity Board and will be discussed by the Board with the undertakers and others concerned shortly. With regard to the second part of the question, no application has been made for statutory powers to supply electricity in the unoccupied rural parts of Carmarthen.
