Competition law
Our Irish Competition Law Online service includes fully consolidated and up-to-date versions of the Competition Act 2002, the Competition and Consumer Protection Act 2014 and all related legislation. Every statute includes hyperlinks to definitions and related provisions, a history of amendments and enables comparison of one version of a provision against another.
We also publish documents from Irish government departments and official bodies such as the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission, as well as from EU and international organisations.
We also partner with leading Irish law firms and accountants to bring you the very best competition law commentary and insights.
