Result of the Competition Commission's investigation
SRH notes the Competition Minister's announcement that she accepts the
Competition Commission's report that the joint venture between GWR and SRH in
respect of Galaxy Radio Wales & West Ltd (Vibe 101) would be expected to operate
against the public interest.
SRH points out that, apart from its interest in Vibe 101 (51%) it has no other
radio interests in the area concerned and none of the remedies suggested involve
any reduction in the SRH interest in the joint venture.
In the coming days SRH will consider the position along with GWR with a view to
finding a resolution acceptable to the OFT and parties involved.
