Wales: Buses and Competition Law
- Question
- How many applications to the Department for Transport have been made by bus operators in Wales for block exemptions from the provisions of current competition law since 1 January 2004.
- Answer
-
Competition law is a matter for the Office of Fair Trading. The only relevant block exemption order is in the Public Transport Ticketing Schemes Block Exemption Order. No application, to any authority, is required from operators if they are satisfied that the ticketing scheme being implemented falls within the terms of the block exemption. Guidance on the block exemption is available from the Office of Fair Trading.
