Digital Competition Law Committee finalising report as last date nears

The digital Competition Law Committee (DCLC) is in the process of finalising its report on the need for a separate law for competition in digital markets, as the panels’s term comes to an end on July 5. Government sources indicated that a third extension of the committee might be underway, if the report is not finalised in the next two days.

The committee was formed in February this year with an original mandate for three months and it has had two extensions of one month each ever since.
