answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 02/08/2019 answer text <p>In September 2018 the Government published the guidance, “Merger review and anti-competitive activity if there's no Brexit deal”. Since then, the Government has legislated for the necessary changes to UK law through the Competition (Amendment etc.) (EU Exit) Regulations 2019. These regulations were approved by Parliament in January. They ensure that in the event of the UK leaving the European Union without a deal, the UK domestic competition regime will continue to operate effectively to address anti-competitive activity and review merger activity. The Government is working closely with the Competition and Markets Authority as it prepares for the UK’s exit from the European Union.</p> answering member constituency Rochester and Strood answering member printed Kelly Tolhurst question first answered 02/08/2019 11:29:44 answering member 4487 label Biography information for Kelly Tolhurst
