The latest activity update regarding the Serbian Competition Commission has been the Decision brought by the Commission’s President to initiate ex officio proceedings for suspected price fixing against 26 undertakings operating in the field of geodetic services.
The proceedings come following a complaint by the Belgrade Land Development Public Agency, delivered to the Commission in April this year. The complaint alleged suspected collusion between providers of geodetic services participating in the Agency’s public procurement procedures – the prices the land surveyors were offering for their services during this year were significantly higher than the prices from the previous two years.
Acting upon the complaint, the Commission found there were sufficient grounds to open a formal investigation in the matter.
