Competition Authority Decision of 19 June 1995 amending under Section 8(3) of the Competition Act 1991 the cylinder LPG category licence (Decision no. 364 of 28 October 1994).

Decision No. 402

Introduction

1. The Competition Authority has decided to amend Article 7 of the cylinder LPG category licence (Decision no. 364 of 28 October 1994). As a consequence paragraph 61 of the decision is also amended. The purpose of the amendment is to allow the reporting condition in Article 7 to be met by the end of June of each year. Notice of intention was published in the Irish Times on 9 June 1995 and no submissions were received from interested parties.


The Decision

2. Paragraph 61 of the decision and Article 7 of the category licence are amended as follows:


61. In order to facilitate this early review of the category licence, the Authority considers that it is necessary to attach certain reporting conditions to the licence. The suppliers will be required to make an annual report to the Authority, for each calendar year, in respect of dealers supplied and sales of cylinder LPG to dealers, so that the Authority can monitor developments in the market. Thus all suppliers who take advantage of the category licence will be required, every year before the end of June, to send a report to the Authority covering the preceding year. The reports shall contain the following information:

(a) the total number of dealer LPG agreements in operation at the end of the preceding year;
(b) the total number of new dealer agreements made during the preceding year;
(c) the total number of dealer agreements terminated during the preceding year; and
(d) the total volume of sales, in tonnes, to dealers in standard domestic cylinders (i.e. 11.343 kg) during the preceding year.

Article 7

3. It is a condition of this category licence that suppliers are required every year before the end of June to send a report to the Competition Authority in respect of the following:


(a) the total number of dealer LPG agreements in operation at the end of the preceding year;
(b) the total number of new dealer agreements made during the preceding year;
(c) the total number of dealer agreements terminated during the preceding year; and
(d) the total volume of sales, in tonnes, to dealers in standard domestic cylinders (i.e. 11.343 kg) during the preceding year.

4. For the avoidance of doubt, failure by a supplier to comply with this condition shall have the effect that the agreements of that supplier do not benefit from this category licence.
