Share Radio's Glen Goodman spoke with Angus Macculloch, Senior Lecturer of EU & UK Competition Law at Lancaster University for some clarification on the issue. Namely, how is it the Competitions and Markets Authority (CMA) determined Pfizer had been overcharging? Are public institutions like the NHS prone to being overcharged in this way?

Moneywise's Moira O Neill and Helen Knapman selecting the best Christmas food
With Christmas now just a few weeks away - now's the time many are stocking up on festive food. With such a wide range on offer choosing a decent spread can be tricky...especially if you want to stick to a budget. The team at Moneywise have taken the Christmas hit and done the hard work for us - trying a range of mince pies, and prosecco. Plus do kids need more toys and games or would the money be better spent setting up saving or investment plans? It will probably be more valuable in the long term - especially when you consider over a third of Christmas toys don't make it past January. £1.2 billion is wasted each year by family and friends buying gifts that get broken or discarded.
