Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Bill to be debated

The Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers bill is being debated by members of the House of Lords during a second reading on Tuesday 4 December.

The bill will create a regime to empower the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) to regulate and increase competition in digital markets.

It also updates powers to enforce competition law and resolve consumer disputes, and protects consumers from unfair commercial, subscription, prepayment and saving schemes.
