Report backs ban on below-cost selling

23/03/2005 - 14:36:54

An Oireachtas Committee has recommended the retention of an order which stops stores selling goods below the recommended retail price.

The ban is meant to stop chain stores and multi-nationals using their bulk-buying power to unfair advantage.

The Interim Report from the Oireachtas Committee on Enterprise and Small Business says the order protects small shop owners and customers.
