Clause 45 - Questions to be decided on
Enterprise Bill
6:00 pm
Miss Melanie Johnson (Parliamentary Under-Secretary, Department of Trade and Industry; Welwyn Hatfield, Labour)
I beg to move amendment No. 179, in page 32, line 29, leave out '(5)' and insert '(6)'.
I can certainly address this amendment, which corrects a cross-referencing error. Our intention is to ensure that the Competition Commission includes in its report decisions on the appropriate remedies for any substantial lessening of competition that occurs. I urge the Committee to support the amendment.
Amendment agreed to.
Amendment made: No. 180, in page 32, line 48, after '(8)' insert—
'in a case where it has decided by virtue of subsection (2)(a) or (5)(a) that there is or will be a substantial lessening of competition,'.—[Miss Melanie Johnson.]
Clause 45, as amended, ordered to stand part of the Bill.
Clauses 46 to 50 ordered to stand part of the Bill.
