Regulation 17 Co-ordination
United Kingdom
If more than one enforcement authority in Great Britain is contemplating bringing proceedings under regulation 15 in any particular case, the F2CMA may direct which enforcement authority is to bring the proceedings or decide that only it may do so.
Where the CMA directs that only it may bring such proceedings it may take into account whether compliance with regulation 3, 4 or 5 could be achieved by other means in deciding whether to bring proceedings.
