acquire 100 per cent of New Zealand Wool Services International's wool scouring business and assets. On 26 March 2015
the Commission released its Draft Determination which outlined the Commission’s preliminary view that it should
authorise the application.
The purpose of the conference is to assist the Commission in making a final determination on Cavalier Wool Holdings
