HC Deb 12 February 1969 vol 777 cc312-3W
86. Mr. John Lee

asked the President of the Board of Trade if he will refer the matter of the various take-over bids for the City of London Real Property Company to the Monopolies Commission.

Mr. Dell

These proposals are being examined in the usual way for a merger within the scope of the Monopolies and Mergers Act. We shall decide whether one or more of them should be referred to the Monopolies Commission when the examination has been completed.
