Introduction
In August the OFT dramatically charged four British Airways officials with criminal cartel offences over price fixing fuel surcharges with Virgin Atlantic. Nothing highlights more clearly how draconian the consequences of cartel activity can be. And although Ian Norris may have avoided extradition on this occasion, anyone found guilty of cartel offences since the introduction of the Enterprise Act may not be so lucky.
This conference promises to provide expert insights from leading competition law specialists who have been at the coalface of cartel proceedings. We are particularly delighted to welcome James Flynn QC from Brick Court Chambers who will be sharing his thoughts on the repercussions of the Norris case. You will also have an opportunity to question the European Commission direct on their cartel enforcement policy and how you can minimise your exposure to cartel risk. Read more >>
