Nederlandse mededingingsrechtelijke zaak bij EHRM: rechtmatigheid van telefoontaps ACM
It is rare for a competition case to reach the Grand Chamber of the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR), and yet the joined cases of Ships Waste Oil Collector and Janssen de Jong v The Netherlands did not make headlines. Not only did this case reach the Grand Chamber, it also generated five (!) dissenting opinions. The case involves wiretaps that ultimately were used by Autoriteit Consument & Markt (ACM) as evidence of price fixing.
