HC Deb 01 March 1971 vol 812 cc301-2W
47. Mr. Pavitt

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will refer the manufacture of mercury cell batteries for hearing aids and hospital communicating systems to the Monopolies Commission.

Mr. Ridley

I will bear the hon. Member's suggestion in mind, along with other industries which satisfy the statutory criteria for reference to the Monopolies Commission.
