COMPETITION ASSESSMENT CHECKLISTCompetition assessment should be conducted if a legal provision has any of the following effects:
Limits the ability of suppliers to compete
This is likely to be the case if the provision:
Limits sellers’ ability to set prices for goods or services
Limits freedom of suppliers to advertise or market their goods or services
Sets standards for product quality that provide an advantage to some suppliers over others, or are above the level that some well-informed customers would choose
Significantly raises costs of production for some suppliers relative to others (especially by treating incumbents differently from new entrants)
Limits the number or range of suppliers
This is likely to be the case if the provision:
Grants exclusive rights for a supplier to provide goods or services
Establishes a license, permit or authorisation process as a requirement of operation
Limits the ability of some suppliers to provide a good or service
Significantly raises cost of entry or exit by a supplier
Creates a geographical barrier for companies to supply goods, services or labour, or invest capital
Reduces the incentive of suppliers to compete
This may be the case if the provision:
Creates a self-regulatory or co-regulatory regime
Requires or encourages information on supplier outputs, prices, sales or costs to be published
Exempts the activity of a particular industry, or group of suppliers, from the operation of general competition law
Limits the choices and information available to customers
This may be the case if the provision:
Limits the ability of consumers to decide from whom they purchase
Reduces mobility of customers between suppliers of goods or services by increasing the explicit or implicit costs of changing suppliers
Fundamentally changes information required by buyers to shop effectively
