The Competition Tribunal has published its updated handbook on case law in electronic format.
The handbook, which is available on the tribunal’s website, is a guide to selected cases spanning two decades.
Covering topics ranging from substantive merger control issues and procedural matters to cases dealing with prohibited conduct and remedies, the handbook captures the tribunal’s institutional approach to cases and serves as a guide for competition law practitioners.
New topics include cases dealing with Covid-19-related complaints adjudicated by the tribunal, the tribunal’s jurisdiction over foreign entities, the powers of the tribunal to vary consent orders, the exercise of the tribunal’s inquisitorial powers, access to confidential information, the approach of the tribunal to indivisible transactions and expanded public-interest grounds in mergers introduced by the 2019 amendments to the Competition Act.
