HC Deb 22 January 1964 vol 687 c145W
Sir C. Osborne

asked the Secretary of State for Industry, Trade and Regional Development when the report of the Monopolies Commission on the supply of wallpaper will be published; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Heath

The Report is being published today. The Commission found that monopoly conditions prevailed in the supply of wallpaper. They also found that certain activities of the monopoly supplier had operated or were operating against the public interest, but they concluded that another activity which they had been asked to consider did not.

I am studying the Report and the Commission's recommendations.
