Authorisation is a public process

The ACCC is required to maintain authorisation registers. The ACCC may place information from the public register on the ACCC website.

Parties providing information to the ACCC regarding a notification or authorisation may ask that the information, or parts of it, be excluded from the public register because it is confidential. 

For further information about the process for excluding information from the public register, please consult the Guidelines for excluding information from the public register for authorisation, merger clearance and notification processes.
