Description
This book offers a critical discussion of the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024 (DMCCA), the first major legislation on competition and consumer law since the UK left the EU.
Since its withdrawal from the EU after almost 50 years as a member, the UK must (re-)assume responsibility for the evolution of its competition and consumer law. Whilst the UK has yet to crystallise a coherent vision for its competition and consumer policies, the EU has already reshaped its competition and consumer law for the digital era. The DMCCA is a crucial element of the UK's emerging legal regime for the digital world, although it does not constitute the most radical possible change from what was there before.
Providing the first detailed examination of the DMCCA with contributions from leading scholars, regulators, practitioners and enforcement agents, the book offers a wide variety of perspectives, including comparative, across the breadth of that far-reaching Act.
The book is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand both the substance and wider impact of the new legislation.
