HC Deb 18 October 1973 vol 861 c283W
Mr. Meacher

asked the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry if he will list such information as is available to him regarding the concentration ratios in each industry as defined by the standard industrial classification.

Sir G. Howe

Information on concentration in different industries is published in the Report on the Census of Production for 1963. This shows for each industry the employment, gross output, net output and certain other items classified by size of enterprise. Comparable information from the Census of Production for 1968 will not be available until the end of 1973. Similar information for 1970 will be published next year, and for subsequent years annually.
