HC Deb 23 January 1967 vol 739 cc213-4W
Mr. Hordern

asked the President of the Board of Trade why he has referred the supply of haircutting services for men to the Monopolies Commission; and if he will publish the terms of reference.

Mr. Jay

There appear to be practices in this service which may restrict competition and which I think the Commission might usefully investigate. The terms of the reference will be published when it is made to the Commission, following consultation with the parties concerned.
