HC Deb 29 April 1974 vol 872 c348W
Mr. Richard Wainwright

asked the Secretary of State for Industry whether his Department makes use of the Price Commission's list of Category One business concerns; and, if so, in what respect.

Mr. Gregor Mackenzie

The statutory purpose of the list is to require the companies on it to provide certain information to the Price Commission and to pre-notify price increases to it. My Department does not at present use the list as such for any other purpose.
