Inadequacy of Law Sample Clauses

Inadequacy of Law. As a general rule, law needs to be designed to reflect economic and political realities of any given jurisdiction. In accordance with this purpose, pressing development needs of a developing country may result in pursuance of unconventional goals in competition legislation. These unconventional goals may concern economic or non-economic public policy objectives. In some developing countries inclusion of non-efficiency based policy goals, no matter how distant from actual operation of markets and competitiveness, might be a precondition of obtaining the necessary political support for the establishment of a domestic competition law regime.86 Competition policy is expected to contribute to economic development in most developing countries. Thus subordination of competition law enforcement to other economic policies, such as trade or foreign investment policies, which are believed to be more conducive to economic development, is deemed to be justifiable.87 Explicit reference to one or more of the following goals are found in domestic competition laws of some developing countries: protection of consumers (India, Tanzania, Zambia, Peru), ensuring freedom of trade (Zambia, India), regulation of internal trade (Sri Lanka), protection of labour (South Africa), protection of SMEs88 (South Africa), expansion of entrepreneurship base (Zambia, Malawi and Zimbabwe) and the promotion of the ownership of particular racial or ethnic groups (South Africa).89 Even in the absence of specific reference to broader public policy goals in competition legislation, such goals might de facto be considered in the judgments of competition law 86 (Xxxxx & Xxxxxxx, 2013b), p. 2167. The authors note that South Africa could not have established a new competition law regime in 1990s if the enhancement of economic opportunities for non-white population was not among the goals of the new law. However, so far the respective goal has played only a very limited role in practice. 87 (Fels & Xx, 2013), Kindle Edition, location 3639 of 7565.
