IFA: Legislation to regulate retailers must include below-cost selling ban
Mr Downey said the bill fails to include a prohibition on below-cost selling. Neither is there any provision to limit the use of own brands by retailers, nor any compulsion on retailers to disclose profits in the Irish market.
On foot of advice from senior counsel Michael Cush, the IFA has tabled several amendments to the competition and consumer protection bill, which was debated yesterday by the Oireachtas Committee on Jobs, Enterprise and Innovation.
