The competition framework Schedule 5: Amendments related to Part 3 Competition and Markets Authority’s powers to take interim action on anti-trust
208.Paragraph 66 is a consequential amendment arising from the transfer to the CMA of the OFT’s powers to take interim action where they have begun an anti-trust investigation (section 35 of the CA 1998). Paragraph 22(2), Schedule 4 of the EA 2002 enables the CAT to be given powers similar to those of the OFT under section 35 of the CA 1998. This reference is updated to reflect the fact that the CMA will assume the OFT’s powers under that Act.
