Radiology buy bid

The Commerce Commission said yesterday that it had received an application from Pacific Radiology for clearance to acquire the radiology services, business and assets of Wakefield Radiology.

Pacific Radiology provides radiology services in Christchurch, Nelson and the Hutt Valley, while Wakefield Radiology has clinics in the Wellington and Wairarapa regions.

The commission said its role in considering the application would be to determine whether the proposed acquisition would substantially reduce competition in the market.
