§ Mr. EyreIn a consultative document published in April 1980 the Department invited comments on proposed alternative measures to assist interested persons to identify the owner of a business, when the Registry of Business Names was abolished. A large number of organisations, firms and persons responded, but it is not the Department's practice to list the individual organisations which have either supported or opposed its proposals.
