Bell Gully's submission on information sharing by the Commerce Commission
Bell Gully made a submission to the Ministry of Economic Development on issues outlined in a discussion paper on information sharing by the commerce commission.
The submission addresses two of the main issues discussed in the paper. Firstly, whether the Commerce Commission should be entitled to release commercially sensitive information, gathered pursuant to its Commerce Act 1986 powers, to overseas competition authorities, to other domestic enforcement agencies and to its other divisions. Secondly, whether the Commission's investigative powers under the Act should be extended to allow it to assist an overseas competition authority with an investigation.
