YORKSHIRE ELECTRICITY BOARD CUSTOMERS

Early day motion 628, tabled 11 May 1999 by Harry Barnes (Labour). Signed by 15 members.

That this House deeply regrets the lack of goodwill and generosity demonstrated by the Yorkshire Electricity Board in refusing to offer suitable compensation to customers who, through no fault of their own, have been inconvenienced or suffered damage to their electrical goods or associated manufacturers' guarantees through unexpected interruptions to the domestic power supply; and calls upon the Yorkshire Electricity Board to follow the more positive and generous example of Northern Ireland Electricity in regard to compensating customers.
