Mr. Norman Atkinson

asked the Secretary of State for Trade if he will make a statement on the progress of the Monopolies and Mergers Commission's examination of The Observer newspaper's change of ownership.

My right hon. Friend expects to receive the Commission's report very shortly. It will be published as soon as practicable thereafter, and a statement will be made.
