This new edition reflects the recent dramatic changes in the trade practices legislation. Due to the impact of the Hilmer Report, & hence changes to the teaching syllabus, the book required a change in its focus & breadth.

The book's important introductory chapter remains, locating competition law within its economic environment, thus providing students with a broader perspective, aiding their understanding of the aims & objectives of the Trade Practices Act. Major areas of change since the previous edition which are now covered in the text include: * the competition law provisions of the Act * the new broader role of the ACCC (Australian Competition & Consumer Commission) * the Competition Reform Policy Act (1995), which introduced into all states, competition codes relating to individuals not just corporations * the repeal of s49 of the TPA on Price Discrimination * the new Evidence Act 1995 (Cth), & * legal professional privilege. For an up-to-date & comprehensive investigation of competition law this book will be invaluable to both students & practitioners.

Download or read book Competition Law in Australia written by Lynden Griggs and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2020-04-20 with total page 192 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Derived from the renowned multi-volume International Encyclopaedia of Laws, this practical analysis of competition law and its interpretation in Australia covers every aspect of the subject the various forms of restrictive agreements and abuse of dominance prohibited by law and the rules on merger control; tests of illegality; filing obligations; administrative investigation and enforcement procedures; civil remedies and criminal penalties; and raising challenges to administrative decisions. Lawyers who handle transnational commercial transactions will appreciate the explanation of fundamental differences in procedure from one legal system to another, as well as the international aspects of competition law. Throughout the book, the treatment emphasizes enforcement, with relevant cases analysed where appropriate. An informative introductory chapter provides detailed information on the economic, legal, and historical background, including national and international sources, scope of application, an overview of substantive provisions and main notions, and a comprehensive description of the enforcement system including private enforcement. The book proceeds to a detailed analysis of substantive prohibitions, including cartels and other horizontal agreements, vertical restraints, the various types of abusive conduct by the dominant firms and the appraisal of concentrations, and then goes on to the administrative enforcement of competition law, with a focus on the antitrust authorities powers of investigation and the right of defence of suspected companies. This part also covers voluntary merger notifications and clearance decisions, as well as a description of the judicial review of administrative decisions. Its succinct yet scholarly nature, as well as the practical quality of the information it provides, make this book a valuable time-saving tool for business and legal professionals alike. Lawyers representing parties with interests in Australia will welcome this very useful guide, and academics and researchers will appreciate its value in the study of international and comparative competition law.

Download or read book The Australian Trade Practices Act 1974 written by D.K. Round and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-04-17 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a collection of papers which evaluate the achievements of the Australian Trade Practices Act 1974 in making Australian markets more competitive. The contributors have all played major roles in Australian and New Zealand antitrust actions, either as expert economic witnesses, as antitrust enforcers, as judges or as quasi-judicial administrators. No other publication presents such in-depth economic analysis of the Act and the cases decided under it in its first two decades of its operation. As well as an introductory paper, this collection includes a foreword by the Hon. George Gear, Assistant Treasurer of the Australian Government and Minister responsible for the administration of the Act, plus two broad analytical overviews of the last two decades of Australian antitrust actions by two economists who have continually been at the heart of antitrust proceedings. In addition, papers are provided which give a judicial view of the Act and economic analysis, which compare the Act with its New Zealand counterpart. Other contributions look in detail at those sections of the Act which cover mergers, misuse of market power, price-fixing and vertical practices. The book shows that the Act has had a major impact on Australian market behavior. Judges, lawyers and economists between them have produced a truly Australian approach to antitrust, which has reflected overseas trends in both law and economics, as well as developed a unique Australian flavor. The book will be of interest to academic and practicing lawyers and economists, judges and corporate executives. It will be essential reading for Australian students in undergraduate courses in antitrust law, business regulation, antitrust economics and industrial organization. It provides by far the most comprehensive economic evaluation of Australian antitrust yet published and so will be the definitive source of information on this topic for non-Australians interested in comparative antitrust legislation and enforcement issues.
Download or read book The Chinese Anti Monopoly Law written by Deborah Healey and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 119 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research project compares the application of the competition laws of China and Australia to bank mergers, against financial regulatory frameworks and the dual objectives of competition and economic stability. As the title indicates, it seeks to identify lessons for Australian banks and Chinese regulators. A number of features dictate that the two jurisdictions will differ on many issues: ideological approach to the role of the market and the degree of appropriate government intervention; stage of economic development; nature of banking markets, particularly the extent of regulation. All of these features mean that many comparisons which could be made were not really of like with like. The research found a number of differences between approaches to merger analysis, particularly in relation to the role of competition itself. Financial stability is important in both jurisdictions. The Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM) has the responsibility for reviewing mergers under the Anti-Monopoly Law of China (AML). There are no MOFCOM bank merger determinations under the AML at this point, but China places particular emphasis on financial stability as part of its national development agenda. This is unsurprising as despite its size and economic power China is still a developing nation. The research found that there are a number of examples where MOFCOM merger determinations in other areas of industry diverge from a pure competition-based analysis, but the divergences are generally within the terms of the AML. MOFCOM's approach is founded in the political economy of the People's Republic of China (PRC), which influences a number of features of the AML, meaning that the outcomes are uniquely Chinese. The AML is enforced by MOFCOM but questions remain about the nature of its application to mergers in sensitive industries. Despite the size of the country, market definition tends to be geographically very broad, which may also affect outcomes in all industries including banking.
