Competition Act 1998 : A Practical Guide

The Competition Act 1998: A Practical Guide represents the most significant reform of UK competition legislation for 20 years. It brings the UK into line with the EC competition regime and offers a strong deterrent to anti-competitive behaviour. Companies will face tougher financial sanctions whilst The Office of Fair Trading will have wide powers of forcible entry and search in pursuit of its investigations. The Competition Act 1998: A Practical Guide, written by two acknowledged experts in this field, provides authoritative guidance on how the Act will affect existing commercial agreements, how the transitional arrangements will work, how regulatory authorities are likely to interpret the new legislation and explains its relationship with EC law. Includes the full text of The Competition Act 1998.
