In the House of Representatives yesterday Mr Hughes urged a ban on horizontal price fixing. He noted that such agreements should fall under the general prohibition like price maintenance. Mr Bowen, for the Attorney-General, discussed committee review of the Trade Practices Act and the potential to apply streamlined vertical procedures to horizontal agreements, citing the frozen peas case as an example and noting time lag as a difficulty.
