Seven West Media will need approval from the Australian Competition & Consumer Commission to acquire Perth masthead "The Sunday Times" for an estimated $A12m to $A15m. The deal with News Corp Australia is believed to include news website PerthNow. The deal may raise competition concerns, as Seven West Media owns Perth’s sole weekday newspaper, "The West Australian". The competition regulator will seek public submissions on the proposed deal.
