The Attorney-General
Well, may I say to the hon. Gentleman that my understanding—I checked this before the start of the debate—is that my right hon. Friend the Culture Secretary did refer the takeover to the Competition Commission?
The Secretary of State for Culture, Olympics, Media and Sport (Mr Jeremy Hunt)

The Attorney-General
He was minded to. As a result of having done so, a series of assurances were provided, which satisfied him. Thereafter, I suggest that the hon. Gentleman refers that question to my right hon. Friend.
