Please note: On 11 October 2024, the Competition Commission issued a media statement announcing that a provisional report on the market inquiry’s findings is expected to be published in November 2024.
The Competition Commission has issued a media statement calling for input by 22 January 2024 on ‘a further statement of issues’ to be explored during its market inquiry into media and digital platforms. The inquiry began in October 2023.
Identified during the first phase of stakeholder consultation, the issues are grouped into themes. They include:
- ‘the incorporation of constitutional interpretation into the inquiry’
- ‘the impact of mis- and disinformation’
- ‘the emphasis on radio and TV broadcast news media (especially the public broadcaster)
- ‘the measurement of news and its benefit to search and social media platforms’
- ‘revenue share arrangements between news media and digital platforms’, and
- ‘the role and importance of transparency in platforms and advertising technology markets’.
The press release encourages stakeholders and market participants to provide reasons and corresponding evidence where appropriate.
