Division (8)

The North American producers did not participate in a series of further anti-competitive meetings strictly among the European producers to coordinate their behaviour on the European market. These meetings took place in the period between March 1994 and October 1998. Activities included the setting and increase of prices (both for the EEA as a whole, for particular national markets and for individual customers), the allocation of individual customers among the participating undertakings, the allocation of markets shares for each undertaking for the EEA market as a whole, the control of distributors and converters and the exchange of commercially sensitive information.
