This Supplementary Order Paper amends new section 50 in clause 4 of the Commerce Amendment Bill. Being a business in a market targeted in a competition study can be hugely expensive, so there need to be checks and balances. We therefore believe competition studies should either be initiated by the responsible Minister or, if initiated by the Commerce Commission, be subject to ministerial approval. The Bill provides for Minister-initiated competition studies. It also provides for the Commission to self-initiate competition studies. This amendment adds the requirement that the Commission obtain ministerial approval for a competition study the Commission initiates.
