Warner Chilcott to delist in new year

North drug-maker Warner Chilcott, the former Galen Holdings, will delist from the Dublin and London stock exchanges on January 6, it said yesterday.

The delisting will take place if shareholders approve the €2.3 billion takeover agreed with American venture capital group Waren Acquisition.

Approval will be sought at an extraordinary general meeting, which will take place in Hollywood, Co Down, tomorrow.
