278 ELECTRICITY —what your help meant THE co-operation of electricity con- sumers substantially lightened the Peak Load during the most difficult winter period. Because of this co- operation, and the mild weather, power cuts have been infrequent and of short duration. Result — Industry has kept going and produced more. Thank you! Consumers who paid the surcharge of 0.35 pence per unit during the winter quarter will for the following three quarters receive a rebate of 0.1 pence per unit. When the financial results of the surcharge are known, the question of still further reducing the charge for the three quarters will be carefully considered.
