COMPETITION ACT: INPUT SOUGHT ON SUGAR MASTERPLAN PHASE 2 BLOCK EXEMPTION PROPOSALS
- 08 May 2025
- Trade, Industry & Competition
- SA Legal Academy
The Department of Trade, Industry & Competition has called for public comments on proposals exempting specific sugar industry stakeholders from certain sections of the 1998 Competition Act. This is with the aim of facilitating sugar industry masterplan Phase 2 implementation.
The deadline for comment is 7 June 2025.
In place since November 2020, the masterplan includes measures to:
- support small scale producers
- promote crop and value chain diversification
- restore local markets, and
- address industry restructuring issues.
To that end, the exemption would allow stakeholders to collaborate on pricing methodology among other things.
- draft block exemption
