Subject: Third line forcing
notification N99149 lodged by Outback Fuel Distributors Pty Ltd trading as KCD
Fuel Supplies [DLM=For-Official-Use-Only]
Security Classification: For Official Use Only
Dear Mr Booth
I refer to the third line forcing
notification lodged with the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission
(the ACCC) by Outback Fuel Distributors Pty Ltd trading as KCD Fuel Supplies on
15 June 2016. It has been allocated the registration number
N99149. The notification and this email will be placed on the ACCC’s
public register which is available on the ACCC’s website.
The protection from legal
action provided by the notification commences automatically 14 days after the
lodgement date, unless the ACCC objects.
On the basis of the information that you have
provided, and that the
parties will disclose all relevant terms and conditions to customers, the ACCC
does not object to the notification at this time.
If
at any time circumstances change, or the ACCC receives further information,
such that it is satisfied that the public benefits from the third line forcing
conduct do not outweigh the public detriments, the ACCC may remove the
protection provided by the notification.
Please
contact Elizabeth Batten on (02) 6243 1359 or by email to adjudication@accc.gov.au if you have any questions
about this matter.
Regards
Mr Baethan Mullen
