The Economic Competition Authority helps businesses with information on on-site research

The Economic Competition Authority (GVH) published a prospectus to provide guidance on the conduct of on-site research, its legal background, and the rights and obligations of the parties to businesses.

The authority is primarily trying to provide support to small and medium-sized enterprises, as more and more on-site research is carried out on these types of businesses. The compilation summarizes the rules of the Competition Act on field of research and presents the established case law. Its purpose is to convey practical information to the businesses concerned, which can help them to follow their lawful behavior.
