Article 2 Non-discrimination between fleet customers and dealers

It shall be unlawful for a supplier to discriminate unjustifiably between fleet customers and dealers who purchase new cars outright in respect of discounts given for the supply of the same or similar number of new cars supplied over the same or similar period of time.

In determining whether discrimination is justifiable in any particular case regard shall be had as to whether the value of the terms and conditions agreed with a dealer is broadly similar to the value of fleet supply agreements recently entered into by that supplier, taking into account the nature of the dealer agreement and fleet supply agreements in question and any additional benefits given or agreed which are financed by the supplier.
