WATER INDUSTRY, ENGLAND AND WALES
Part 3 of the Enterprise Act 2002 (“the 2002 Act”) contains the main statutory scheme for the regulation of mergers. Sections 32 to 35 of, and Schedule 4ZA to, the Water Industry Act 1991 (“the 1991 Act”) (as substituted by section 70 of the 2002 Act) provide a separate scheme for the regulation of mergers between water or sewerage undertakers (“water mergers”) in England and Wales. Section 32 of that Act places a duty on the OFT to refer to the Competition Commission any such mergers which exceed certain thresholds that are set pursuant to section 33 of that Act.
