Written answers

The Competition Act 2002 prohibits anti-competitive practices and the Competition Authority is the independent statutory body charged with the enforcement of this legislation. Accordingly, allegations of anti-competitive practices should be referred to the authority for investigation. Given that the authority is currently carrying out a study of competition issues in the non-life insurance sector, it may be particularly interested in the circumstances of this case.
