    Order No. 5 (1960) of the Trade Practices and Prices

    In the matter of the Trade Practices Act 1958, and in the
    matter of an inquiry into an agreement or arrangement
    between members of the Wellington Fencing Materials
    Association in respect of wire netting.
    Whereas the Trade Practices and Prices Commission has,
    pursuant to section 18 of the Trade Practices Act 1958, con-
    ducted an inquiry into an agreement or arrangement alleged
    to exist between members of the Wellington Fencing Materials
    Association as to the charging by them of uniform profit
    margins for wire netting.
    And whereas the Trade Practices and Prices Commission
    found that such an agreement or arrangement did exist and
    that the same was a trade practice which was contrary to the
    public interest.
    And whereas the Trade Practices and Prices Commission
    by Order No. 2 (1959), bearing date the 7th day of September
    1959 and published in the Gazette on the 24th day of Sep-
    tember 1959, made certain orders pursuant to section 19 of

    appealed against the whole of the said orders.
    And whereas the Trade Practices Appeal Authority heard
    the said appeal and by its decision, bearing date the 20th day
    of November 1959, directed the Trade Practices and Prices Com-
    mission to reconsider the question whether the effect of the
    trade practice which had been found to exist is, or would be,
    to unreasonably reduce or limit competition in the sale of
    wire netting and to make such further inquiry as is necessary.
    And whereas the Trade Practices and Prices Commission
    on the 30th day of September 1960 duly held a further
    inquiry into the said question as directed by the said Trade
    Practices Appeal Authority.
    And whereas the Trade Practices and Prices Commission
    by decision, bearing date the 25th day of November 1960,
    has confirmed the decision contained in the said Order No. 2
    (1959) subject to Martin and Co. Ltd., W. Struthers and Co.,
    Taylor Enright Ltd., Ashby Bergh and Co. Ltd., Neville
    Baillie and Co. Ltd., John Burns and Co. Ltd., Griffin and Smith
    Ltd., National Mortgage and Agency Co. Ltd., and Renton
    Hardware Co. Ltd., being members of the Wellington Fencing
    Materials Association trading on the West Coast of the South
    Island, being excluded therefrom.
    Now, therefore, the Trade Practices and Prices Commission,

    1958, hereby orders the members of the Wellington Fencing
    Materials Association other than the said members trading
    on the West Coast of the South Island to discontinue the
    said agreement or arrangement, and further orders the mem-
    bers of the said Association other than the said members
    trading on the West Coast of the South Island not to revive
    or renew the said agreement or arrangement or to enter into
    any other agreement or arrangement of substantially the same
    nature or to repeat in any form the said trade practice, and
    further orders that the said Order No. 2 (1959), bearing date
    the 7th day of September 1959 and published in the Gazette
    on the 24th day of September 1959, be and the same is hereby
    revoked.
