The Competition Commission (CC) and the Office of Fair Trading sought views on a good practice guide for the design and presentation of consumer survey evidence.
This consultation is now closed.
The guide is intended to assist parties and their advisors who wish to provide consumer survey evidence in merger inquiries.
The guide notes several principles of good survey design and sets out a range of practices that will tend to increase the evidential weight that can be given to survey results. Examples of good and poor practice drawn from recent investigations are presented.
See the Mergers publications section for further information.
