摘要:This has been a year of significant
developments for the OFT, which has seen
us carry out groundbreaking work across
many areas. On the consumer side we took
forward our test case and market study
on bank overdraft charges and we have
conducted some high profile awareness
campaigns, including Scams Awareness
Month and the Save Xmas campaign.
I have been particularly struck by the
breadth and quality of our partners in this
work – particularly Local Authority Trading
Standards Services and Citizens Advice,
as well as a wide variety of charities and
community groups across the UK. On the
competition side, we pursued a number
of significant infringement cases and, in
a landmark case, brought our first criminal
cartel prosecution.
