Parliament, Wednesday, 3 October 2018 – The Portfolio Committee on Economic Development today continued with the consideration of amendments to the A-list of the Competition Amendment Bill.

It was unfortunate yesterday that the Democratic Alliance walked out of the meeting and again today were absent, however the portfolio committee continued with its work of going through all the amendments to the bill on the A-list. The committee considered all public submissions and oral presentations made by stakeholders.

The amendments to the Competition Amendment Bill were adopted by the committee and will be forwarded to the National Assembly.
