Prohibition of discrimination in respect of contract hire companies

(2) In determining whether there is discrimination contrary to paragraph (1) no account shall be taken of a payment made by the supplier to the contract hire company in respect of the supply of a new car, where such payment is made at the request of a fleet customer as a result of an agreement entered into between the fleet customer and the supplier before the supply of the car to the contract hire company.
(3) For the purpose of paragraph (1) discount means the difference between the price paid by a contract hire company for the supply of a new car and the list price, expressed as a percentage of the list price.
