Enterprise and Regulatory Reform Act 2013

167.Paragraph 19 makes provision for the CMA to take an international role as regards certain matters, including consumer matters. The provision will enable the CMA to represent the UK Government in international fora in any field connected to its functions when requested by the Secretary of State. The provision also enables the CMA to assume the OFT’s role in promoting good consumer practice outside the UK, for example as a member of the International Consumer Protection and Enforcement Network and the London Action Plan (which seeks to promote international spam enforcement cooperation and address spam related problems).
