HC Deb 01 June 1981 vol 5 cc233-4W
33. Mr. Kenneth Carlisle

asked the Secretary of State for Trade when he intends to publish the report of the investigation by the Monopolies and Mergers Commission into the Central Electricity Generating Board.

Mrs. Sally Oppenheim

The report, which was published on 20 May, was valuable, constructive and thorough. I am pleased to have this opportunity to pay tribute to the MMC for completing such a comprehensive report in a comparatively short space of time.

34. Mr. George

asked the Secretary of State for Trade if he is satisfied with the operation of the self-regulatory system in connection with the securities industry; and if he will make a statement.

Mr. Biffen

I refer the hon. Member to the answer given earlier today to the right hon. Member for Battersea, North (Mr. Jay).
