48Procedure relating to PCI investigations
(1)
Where the CMA begins a PCI investigation it must give the designated undertaking to which the investigation relates a notice (a “PCI investigation notice”).
(2)
The PCI investigation notice must state—
(b)
the purpose and scope of the PCI investigation;
(c)
the period by the end of which the CMA must give the undertaking a notice setting out its decision as a result of the investigation (see section 50(1));
(d)
the circumstances in which that period may be extended (see section 104).
(3)
The CMA may give the undertaking one or more revised versions of the PCI investigation notice if it changes its view of the purpose and scope of the investigation, provided that the purpose and scope of the investigation remains substantially the same.
(4)
As soon as reasonably practicable after giving a PCI investigation notice or a revised version of the PCI investigation notice, the CMA must publish the notice or the revised version of the notice.
