Appointments to the Takeovers Panel
The Takeovers Panel welcomes the appointments of Mr Mark Paganin, Partner, Clayton Utz and Mr Simon Withers, former Director, Kleinwort Benson, both located in Western Australia.
These are our reasons for our decision to accept certain undertakings and to dismiss the application (the Application) dated 10 December 2002 by S.A. Liquor Distributors Ltd (SALD) for a declaration of unacceptable circumstances, and interim and final orders, in relation to a takeover bid for that company by Australian Liquor Marketers Pty Ltd (ALM).
