Resumen de Ireland: : New law on media mergers
In 2008, a government-appointed advisory group published its 126-page report on media mergers, recommending a number of amendments to the law on media mergers contained in the Competition Act 2002 (see IRIS 2009-3/13). The Irish parliament enacted on the 28 July 2014 the Competition and Consumer Protection Act 2014, which entered into force on the 31 October 2014, amending the Competition Act 2002 and incorporating many of the media merger law reforms proposed by the advisory group.
