§ Mr. Arnoldasked the Secretary of State for Trade if he will refer to the Director General of Fair Trading the practice whereby the broadcasting authorities do not allow the free reproduction of their programme schedules: and if he will make a statement.
§ Mrs. Sally OppenheimI understand that the Director General of Fair Trading considered this practice last year and decided not to make a reference to the Monopolies and Mergers Commission under the Fair Trading Act 1973. I understand that the Director General would be willing to go into the matter further if my hon. Friend would write to him.
