The Competition and Markets Authority has primary responsibility for enforcing competition law in the UK. Its primary duty is to seek to promote competition, both within and outside the UK, for the benefits of consumers.

At every step of the negotiations to withdraw from the European Union we will work to ensure the best possible outcome for the British people.
