17 April 2014
On 14 April 2014, the Competition Policy Review Panel released its Issues Paper for the so called "Root and Branch" review of Australia's competition laws.
The Issues Paper has been structured to seek feedback on a wide range of issues that affect the level of competition in the Australian economy. The Paper casts a wide net, looking not only at existing laws and institutions but also to market practices that can affect competition in Australia.
In this briefing, we look at the main areas covered by the Issues Paper, and suggest areas of interest for specific industries.
