Part 1: Digital Markets Imposition of conduct requirements Section 24: Consultation in relation to a conduct requirement
This section imposes a duty on the CMA to consult publicly before imposing, varying or revoking a conduct requirement. The consultation must be brought to the attention of such persons as the CMA considers appropriate.
	The CMA is only able to impose conduct requirements on a designated undertaking, i.e. after designation of that undertaking with SMS, but subsection (3) provides that the CMA is allowed to carry out a consultation on proposed conduct requirements before it has made a decision on designation. This makes it possible for the CMA to impose conduct requirements at the same time as issuing a decision on designation or very shortly afterwards.
