HC Deb 29 May 1968 vol 765 c219W
61. Mr. Biggs-Davison

asked the President of the Board of Trade what consideration he has given to referring to the Monopolies Commission the proposed merger to form the International Computers Limited; and what advice he has given to this company as to the extent to which it should obtain such funds as it requires from the market.

Mr. Dell

As announced by the Minister of Technology on 21st March, my right hon. Friend decided that a reference under the Monopolies and Mergers Act 1965 would not be appropriate. The second part of the question is a matter for the Minister of Technology.
