To reform the Catalan Competition Authority to assign it the strength needed to ensure competition on markets and prosecute cases of abuse of a dominant position

In order to guarantee broader efficiency, lower market prices and improved social wellbeing, it is vital to ensure market competition and to prosecute cases of abuse of a dominant position. To make sure the current Catalan Competition Authority can effectively perform this task, it must be increasingly assigned a larger budget and highly qualified professionals, whilst also being assured independence from the political establishment. Its goals must be broader than they currently are and enable proactive action in the preparation of specific recommendations and in the uncovering and investigation of cases. At least once a year it is also necessary for it to report on its actions to the Parliament, which must acknowledge receipt of the regulatory proposals and recommendations made by the Catalan Competition Authority and deliver a public response to them.
