Tindle Newspapers Ltd / UKRD's shareholding in Delta Radio Ltd

OFT closed case: Anticipated acquisition by Tindle Newspapers Limited of UKRD's shareholding in Delta Radio Limited.

Affected market: Supply of radio services

No. ME/1298/04

On the basis of the information available to it, the Office of Fair Trading has decided that the anticipated acquisition of UKRD's shareholding in Delta Radio by Tindle Newspapers does not qualify for investigation under the mergers provisions of the Enterprise Act 2002, because neither the UK turnover test nor the share of supply test in section 23 of the Act is met.  A relevant merger situation has, therefore, not been created.
