THE Competition and Consumer Commission of Singapore (CCCS) will "generally" not investigate certain collaborations between competitors when it comes to the supply of essential goods or services in Singapore, amid the ongoing novel coronavirus outbreak.
These collaborations should sustain or improve the supply of essential goods or services, be limited in scope and time, and also not involve price-fixing, bid-rigging, market sharing or output limitation.
