Abstract

By the spring of 1991 CDC was keen to agree the terms of reference for the next Quinquennial Review, which was due to start in September, and they were duly settled in early May. But almost simultaneously, CDC became aware that the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) was considering a reference to the Monopolies and Mergers Commission (MMC), as part of a cycle of references under section 11 of the Competition Act, to examine questions relating to the cost and efficiency of public corporations. This was confirmed in a letter from the Secretary of State, who opined that the review would ‘complement’ the Quinquennial Review.
