She noted that settlements in the cases of prohibited agreements between competitors are a new important instrument in the enforcement of competition law. Regarding the combating of unfair trading practices, she said that since the beginning of the application of the law in 2018, the CCA has initiated 48 administrative proceedings, of which 22 infringement decisions have been made so far and sanctions in the amount of more than EUR 1 million imposed.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2023\/04\/DSC_0085-1-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-26447\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2023\/04\/DSC_0085-1-167x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"167\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DSC_0085-1-167x300.jpg 167w, https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DSC_0085-1-570x1024.jpg 570w, https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DSC_0085-1-768x1380.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DSC_0085-1-855x1536.jpg 855w, https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DSC_0085-1-1140x2048.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DSC_0085-1-scaled.jpg 1425w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 167px) 100vw, 167px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The minister of agriculture, Marija Vu\u010dkovi\u0107, emphasized that without competition, we could not expect economic growth and development. She noted that unfair trading practices in the food supply chain most often adversely affected small and medium-sized enterprises, food production, and thus the vitality of rural communities. Unfair trading practices and prohibited agreements between undertakings necessarily lead to the weakening of the economy and were detrimental to medium-sized enterprises that played a key role in the developed countries. This caused most harm to the production and processing but harmed at least the trade. She added that trade was necessary, but also that all stakeholders had to be treated equally and fairly, and the state had to protect those who found it difficult to reach a fair position.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-26457\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2023\/04\/DSC_0134-229x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"229\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DSC_0134-229x300.jpg 229w, https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DSC_0134-781x1024.jpg 781w, https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DSC_0134-768x1007.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DSC_0134-1171x1536.jpg 1171w, https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DSC_0134-1561x2048.jpg 1561w, https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DSC_0134-scaled.jpg 1951w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 229px) 100vw, 229px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The state secretary of the Ministry of the Economy and Sustainable Development, Hrvoje Bujanovi\u0107, emphasized the exceptionally good cooperation between the ministry and the CCA.

At a certain point in the procedure, the undertakings can present a written submission where the party to the proceeding voluntarily and in whole admits to the participation in an infringement of Article 8 of the Competition Act and\/or Article 101 TFEU and presents in writing its acknowledgement of, or its renunciation to dispute against the decision of the CCA identifying the infringement. The fine can be reduced by 10 % to 20 % of the total amount of the fine that would otherwise be imposed on the party concerned without the settlement submission. This contributes to efficiency of the proceeding and enables the CCA to direct its resources to other or new cases. The panel discussion opened the question of further regulation of certain open legal issues in the application of the new instrument in the form of necessary guidelines for undertakings.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2023\/04\/DSC_0181-scaled.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-26459\" src=\"https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/\/2023\/04\/DSC_0181-300x203.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"203\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DSC_0181-300x203.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DSC_0181-1024x692.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DSC_0181-768x519.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DSC_0181-1536x1038.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.aztn.hr\/ea\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/DSC_0181-2048x1383.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The second panel dealt with the implementation of the Act on the prohibition of unfair trading practices in the business-to-business food supply chain (UTPs Act) from its entry into force until today.
