Joint Oireachtas Committee on Agriculture, Food and the Marine

Groceries Sector: Discussion with the Competition Authority and the National Consumer Agency

3:35 pm

Ms Isolde Goggin:

May I come in here? I have to protect the integrity of our process. I must remind the committee that we are a criminal enforcement agency. There are criminal provisions under the Competition Act 2002 for certain offences. We are all aware of the danger of prejudicing possible future trials in any area because of speaking out of turn and coming up with things that can be identified. The Chairman warned us about that at the outset.
