Notice of Inquiry; An Analysis of the European Union Repeal of the Liner Conference Block Exemption

Краткое содержание

The Federal Maritime Commission ("FMC" or "Commission") is issuing this inquiry to solicit information and comments concerning the effects on international liner shipping of the European Union's ("E.U.") repeal of the liner block exemption from competition laws that took effect on October 18, 2008. This information will assist the Commission in its identification, analysis and evaluation of any consequences of the E.U.'s policy decision on U.S. trades, and will be incorporated into the Commission's research for An Analysis of the E.U. Repeal of the Liner Conference Block Exemption ("E.U. Study") which is scheduled to be completed in late 2011.
