Adjournment Matters. - Beef Industry.

 

I reiterate the authority's encouragement of complainants as it is only by acting on hard evidence that the authority can make progress in rooting out anti-competitive activity which has such negative effects on both the industry and consumers. As stated previously, the authority has responsibility for the enforcement of competition in all areas of our economy. Its remit requires it to be vigilant as to breaches of the Competition Act. Senators can be assured that it is monitoring developments in all sectors. In the absence of competition law being breached, this matter is one for the parties themselves to resolve.
