Product Description
Competition law, at both the EC and UK levels, plays an important and ever-increasing role in regulating the conduct of businesses to the extent that businesses now require graduates to be aware of the significance and effect of the provisions of EC and UK competition law. Competition Law and Policy in the EC and UK looks at how competition law affects business, including: co-ordinated actions; pricing behaviour; take-overs and mergers; and State subsidies. It provides a clear guide and outline of the general policies behind, and the main provisions of, Community and UK competition law. Information is presented within a structured framework, complete with a glossary of useful terminology. The third edition has been substantially revised to incorporate a number of recent important developments in EC and UK competition law. The most notable inclusions are the modernisation of EC enforcement through Regulation 1/2003, the reform of the EC Merger Regulation, the introduction of the Enterprise Act 2002, which repealed and replaced the merger and monopoly provisions of the Fair Trading Act 1973 and introduced a new cartel offence, and the development of policy and practice in relation to the Competition Act 1998.

Review
Praise for the second edition; 'This book is principally for competition law students as a course textbook but will also be useful for those involved in competition law in practice...It is thorough, searching and well-researched with good footnotes and references for further reading. It would be a useful edition to library shelves of many a commercial lawyer'. Susan Singleton, New Law Journal, May 2002. Praise for the first edition; 'It is a welcome addition to our book shelves..students will benefit from its freshness and approachability as well as from its incorporation of the major recent changes in law'.
