The ACCC approach to the detection, investigation & prosecution of cartels
28th September 2005
Conference
Economics Society of Australia
Detection of cartels symposium
Summary
The OECD’s conclusion in 2002 that cartels are the most ‘egregious violations of competition law’ explains why the fight against cartels is given priority in all jurisdictions with developed anti-trust laws including Australia. The ACCC will continue to give cartel detection, investigation and prosecution a very high priority.
