To ask the President of the Board of Trade when the Minister for Competition and Consumer Affairs plans to reply to the letter from the hon. Member for Kingston and Surbiton dated Tuesday 30 September regarding the Inntrepreneur Pub Company. [19733]

Mr. Nigel Griffiths

A letter from the hon. Member about the Inntrepreneur Pub Company dated 13 August was received by my Department on 19 August. A reply was sent on 26 August. My Department has not received a further letter from that hon. Member on this matter since that date. On receiving the Parliamentary Question my Department telephoned the hon. Member's office to obtain a copy of the letter dated 30 September. I have since replied to that letter.
