Visy decided in 2007 to settle a civil penalty case initiated by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission by paying $36 million. While no official details of the Amcor settlement were available last night, understands Cadbury, one of the world's biggest makers of chocolates, secured substantially improved terms for the supply under contract of corrugated boxes and aluminium cans. Cadbury is also believed to have negotiated a small lump sum as compensation for earlier losses, although this is expected to be only a fraction of the $235.8 million it was seeking.
