This overview responds to a request from ministers from the Department for Business and Trade (DBT) and the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) for the CMA to set out how we intend to implement the new digital markets regime provided for under Part 1 of the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumer Bill.

The document details the principles that will guide our approach to our new role, including:

  • tailoring our actions to the specific problems that are identified
  • focusing on where we can have the most impact for people, businesses and the UK economy
  • engaging with a wide range of stakeholders
  • operating with transparency
