HC Deb 11 March 1976 vol 907 c312W
Mr. Michael Marshall

asked the Secretary of State for Trade whether he will list the statutory monopolies, the authorities responsible for managing these monopolies and the Acts of Parliament which established these monopolies.

Mr. Clinton Davis

None of the authorities for which my right hon. Friend is responsible has been granted by Act of Parliament an exclusive right or duty to sell a commodity or provide a service. The Civil Aviation Authority, jointly with Ministry of Defence, is, however, by virtue of the Civil Aviation Act, 1971, the sole supplier of certain en route navigation services.
