Israel 1988 Dominance Efficiency Def.

Sounds likes this could be an efficiency defense for dominance:

Article 31 Separation of a Monopoly

(a) In the case that the Tribunal considers, following the application of the General Director, that the public is substantially prejudiced, whether in a manner provided by Section 30 or in any other way, as the result of the existence of a Monopoly, and that such prejudice cannot efficiently be avoided by regulating the activities of the Monopoly in accordance with Section 30, but may only be achieved by separating the Monopoly into two or more distinct business entities, it may order the separation of the Monopoly.

Hylton: this is not an efficiency defense, statute just gives Commission powers to dissolution powers.

Israel 1988 Remedies Available to 3rd Parties

Looks like this article implies 3rd parties may recover monetary damages:

Article 46I(a) - "In the case that a ruling of pecuniary compensation is handed down by a Court in a Class Action, such Court may (1) Instruct whether such compensation is to be paid immediately or within a period determined by the Court"

Tough to tell who is getting the $$ w/out the context. How do you know this covers 3rd parties? --Kajrozga 18:58, 8 July 2007 (EDT)
