Statement re OFT

Carpetright plc

Re: OFT Consultation on Advertising of Prices

Carpetright announces that it has received a letter from the Office of Fair Trading in respect of a Consultation under Section 214 of the Enterprise Act 2002, relating to Carpetright's pricing practices and consumer protection legislation. 

Carpetright strives to operate fully within all laws and regulations at all times.

Carpetright is co-operating fully with the OFT and will respond to the letter in due course. 

There is no suggestion in the letter of Carpetright having behaved in a manner which breaches competition law.
