Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Australian and New Zealand economies are becoming increasingly integrated. This has arisen because of shared legal and political heritage, geographical proximity and similarity of policy measures adopted by governments in both countries. Recently, the two governments have articulated a long term goal of achieving a single economic market. The governments regard deeper coordination of the regulatory environments for business as an essential element to achieving a single economic market. Measures, such as the Australia New Zealand Closer Economic Relations Trade Agreement and the Memorandum of Understanding on Business Law Coordination, have provided a framework for removing obstacles to trade and investment...Although many policy measures have been adopted to remove such obstacles, there are concerns about whether the existing competition and consumer protection regimes of the two countries might be an impediment to the development of a single economic market. The two governments have asked the Commission to examine the potential benefits from greater cooperation, coordination and integration of the core components of the competition and consumer protection regimes of Australia and New Zealand." -- from the Overview, p. xv.

Download or read book The Evolution of Competition Law in New Zealand written by Rex Ahdar and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2020-08-21 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The modern era of competition law in New Zealand began with the Commerce Act 1986. Since then, a steady and impressive corpus of case law had traversed all the usual major areas of antitrust law: cartels, resale price maintenance, exclusive dealing, tying, group boycotts, monopolization, mergers and acquisitions, exempted sectors, and the role of economic evidence. This volume explains the rationale for the various major reforms, the ongoing contestation between the Harvard and Chicago Schools of antitrust, and traces the developments of key concepts over the last 34 years. This title also explores systemic issues such as how well has New Zealand moulded its own competition law whilst nonetheless selectively drawing upon the policies, case law, and wisdom of foreign jurisdictions; how effectively has it faced the challenge of adapting its fledgling competition law to the reality of being a small, deregulated, open, and distant economy; and how successful was the application of competition law to utilities in the experimental era of 'light handed regulation'. Written by a New Zealand competition expert, this detailed, original, and comprehensive chronicle of New Zealand's competition law and policy draws together the common threads that mark the modern era and offers some predictions about how the next decades of New Zealand competition law might unfold.
