Mr. Brian McHugh:

The fining powers we have of €10 million or 10% relate to breaches of competition law. They do not relate to breaches of consumer law. We have been engaged and identified this as an issue, in that we need to bring consumer law into line with competition law. We have seen with the competitiveness action plan that the proposal is that the Government will be bringing legislation forward, hopefully next year, to bring consumer law into line with competition law, whereby the commission can levy sanctions. It is subject to court approval.
