ABSTRACT
According to the CPC this requires an examination of the rules and principles of the internal energy market in the context of sustainable development, in particular with regard to the environment. [...]the CPC considers it necessary to continue the close observation of the food sector for anticompetitive practices. According to the CPC, these agreements should not take the form of cartels or other anticompetitive practices. According to the CPC, these events provided it with a good reason to review whether some of the main market players (ie, Lukoil Bulgaria, NIS Bulgaria, Shell Bulgaria, Eco Bulgaria, OMV Bulgaria and Petrol), which were subject to a cartel investigation in 2016 – 2017, fulfil the commitments they undertook at the end of that investigation.
ABSTRACT
According to the Drug Law, manufacturers and importers can carry out the import and wholesale of drugs only within the scope of their manufacturing or import permits.6 Further, a Master Pharmacist or an Assistants Master Pharmacist can manage one pharmacy only and is obliged to work in it. According to the new law provisions: a person who has drugs wholesale authorisation cannot be a holder of authorisation for retail trade with drugs in pharmacies9;and a person who has authorisation for drugs retail trade in pharmacies cannot be a holder of drugs wholesale authorisation10. [...]the CPC elaborates its conclusions on the current amendments of the Drug Law and the effects of the extended vertical integration prohibition on competition. According to the CPC the prohibited vertical integration had negative impact on the markets' structure and especially on wholesale markets.
