Preface
Face - Contents - Bottom - Previous/Next "Annual Report 2005" The Annual Report 2005 gives an outline of the Authority's activities and cases in the past year. In many respects, 2005 was an eventful year. First, a number of amendments to the Danish Competition Act entered into force. Thus, the Danish legislation was aligned with the modernized EU rules both in regard to merger control as well as the rules laid down in Articles 81 and 82. Second, the new Public Procurement Directives entered into force in Danish law on 1 January 2005. As a result, the Authority has performed a major task in advocating the new rules, as well as dealing with inquiries from affected authorities and private entities. 2006 also appears to be an exiting year. Among other things, a ministerial working group has been established in order to investigate how leniency can be incorporated in Danish competition legislation.
