Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Act 2013

Section 52: Power to remove concurrent competition functions of sectoral regulators

382.Section 52 introduces a reserve power for the Secretary of State to remove concurrent powers from sector regulators in future.

383.Subsection (1) provides that the Secretary of State may by order made by statutory instrument amend any enactment to remove from a sectoral regulator either its functions under Part 1 of the CA 1998 Act or its functions under Part 4 of the EA 2002, or both (a “sectoral regulator order”). The Secretary of State has the power to make a sectoral regulator order where he considers that it is appropriate to do so for the purpose of promoting competition, within any market or markets in the United Kingdom, for the benefit of consumers. Subsection (3) provides that a sectoral regulator order may also amend any enactment the Secretary of State considers appropriate as a consequence of the removal of the specified functions (for example, removing a regulator’s duty to consider Competition Act enforcement.) Subsection (6) provides that the statutory instrument containing a sectoral regulator order is subject to the affirmative resolution procedure in Parliament.

Asesiadau Effaith

Impact Assessments generally accompany all UK Government interventions of a regulatory nature that affect the private sector, civil society organisations and public services. They apply regardless of whether the regulation originates from a domestic or international source and can accompany primary (Acts etc) and secondary legislation (SIs). An Impact Assessment allows those with an interest in the policy area to understand:

  • Why the government is proposing to intervene;
  • The main options the government is considering, and which one is preferred;
  • How and to what extent new policies may impact on them; and,
  • The estimated costs and benefits of proposed measures.
