59166 (2025). Arena Williams to the Minister of Commerce and Consumer Affairs

59166 (2025). Arena Williams to the Minister of Commerce and Consumer Affairs: Does the Minister agree with Minter Ellison that the new provision on predatory pricing in the Commerce (Promoting Competition and Other Matters) Amendment Bill, if passed in its current form, will create significant uncertainty?

Hon Scott Simpson: No, as the rules around predatory pricing are just codifying current practice. But I welcome feedback from stakeholders and look forward to reading through the submissions at the Select Committee, and if there are refinements that improve clarity and workability, I am open to considering these.
