John Cleland repackaged
Article Abstract:
IWP International has decided to focus on own-label personal care products, and has therefore sold John Cleland, producer of printed cartons and self-adhesive labels, back to John McComish, who sold the company to IWP in 1988. The 16 million pounds sterling deal was backed by NatWest Ventures (NWV). Cleland has already invested 4.5 million pounds sterling in installing modern equipment over recent months, and will require further investment. McComish plans to expand the business through acquisitions.

The time share nightmare
Article Abstract:
There have been many cases of people who have been persuaded to enter into a time-share agreement being left with high levels of debt. There are particular problems in this respect in the Canaries, Spain and the Balearics. However, the situation may improve as new European Union regulations to come into effect in Apr 1997 force resorts to make available a disclosure document to all buyers. This will have to give details about the vendor and the property and will contain certain rights for buyers.

About turn! Major rewrites the Queen's Speech in mid-debate
Article Abstract:
UK government ministers had insisted that the creation of a paedophile register and a bill on stalking would have to be taken through the House of Commons by backbench MPs making use of the Private Member's Bill process. However, prime minister John Major shocked observers by suddenly agreeing that the government would take charge of these bills. This change of approach has been welcomed by the Labour party, which had offered its full support for the bills.
