CCPC investigates Formpress's proposed acquisition of D&D Media for potential competition concerns.

Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (CCPC) in Ireland is investigating Formpress Publishing's proposed acquisition of D&D Media, the owner of Inishowen Independent newspaper, to ensure media acquisitions don't reduce commercial competition and prevent concentrated media ownership. Formpress is a subsidiary of Iconic Newspapers, which operates over 20 regional newspapers. Interested parties have until August 28 to submit feedback on the deal.
