Legal Service

Legal Service in the Closure of Proceedings

The Legal Service should be consulted on the proposal to close the case on the basis of the draft decision.

More about Legal Service

In cases of partial closure, the consultation may be done at the same time as the consultation on the rest of the case. In other words, if proceedings are to be closed against one company, while a prohibition decision is proposed against others, the consultation on the proposal to close and on the preliminary draft prohibition decision may be done simultaneously.
