§ Dr. WoodcockTo ask the Secretary of State for Trade and Industry (1) if he will take action to amend the Unichem Ltd. (Allotment of Shares) Order 1989 to prevent Unichem from continuing with the change of trading terms introduced on 1 July and to ensure that shares issued to new members recruited after the date of the order do not rank for participation in the planned flotation of Unichem;
(2) what action he will take to prevent Unichem using its privileged position as an industrial and provident society to continue anti-competitive practices in a similar form to those identified in the recent Monopolies and Mergers Commission investigation.
§ Mr. RedwoodI will write to my hon. Friend as soon as possible and place a copy in the Library.
