Early day motion tabled by primary sponsor Stephen Ladyman (Labour), on Tuesday, 4 November 1997, in the House of Commons. It is signed by 59 members in total.
INNTREPENEUR-NEW OWNERSHIP
That this House believes that almost all the tenant landlords of Inntrepeneur Co. Ltd. entered into agreements with Inntrepeneur relying on the promise to be made 'free of tie' by March 1998; believes that there is incontrovertible evidence that such promises were made to prospective tenants; reaffirms its belief that the Office of Fair Trading was wrong to release Inntrepeneur from their undertaking to free all their public houses from tie; and notes that Inntrepeneur Co. Ltd. is now, as a result of new ownership, about to re-emerge as the biggest pub owning company in the United Kingdom; believes that the new corporate structures will re-create the adverse effects to the consumer forecast in the 1991 MMC report (Elders - Grand Met); and calls on the new owners to honour the past promises made to tenants.
