TAKEOVER OF CADBURY

That this House notes with deep concern the decision by the board of Cadbury to recommend the bid for the company by Kraft; further notes Kraft's heavily indebted position; fears that the takeover may result in plant closures and job losses; and urges the Government to examine takeover legislation with the greatest urgency with a view to providing some degree of security against predatory takeovers.
