Recommendation
Whilst we support the increase in powers for the CMA, we also share the concern that there is insufficient oversight of the CMA and its performance. Additional powers must therefore come with additional accountability. This Committee will be undertaking more work on parliamentary oversight of the CMA, and other regulators, in 2023. In the interim, we require the CMA to proactively report to this Committee on an ongoing basis.
