Competition policy is intended to give a guarantee that barriers to internal trade, which have been lifted as part of the common market, will not be replaced by other measures on the part of businesses or governments, because this would lead to the distortion of competition.
Scopul politicii concurenţiale este acela de a garanta că barierele în calea comerţului intern, eliminate o dată cu crearea pieţei comune, nu vor fi înlocuite de alte măsuri ale întreprinderilor sau guvernelor, deoarece acest lucru ar conduce la distorsionarea concurenţei.
