Details

In August 2021 the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) made a number of recommendations should the government wish to impose further constraints on the secondary ticketing market.

This letter recognises the enforcement action taken to date by CMA and Trading Standards but the government does not currently intend to introduce further regulation in this area and is instead focusing its consumer protection measures in the recently introduced Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers (DMCC) Bill.
