UK Government to bring forward the Digital Markets, Competition, and Consumer Bill 

UK Government announced the Digital Markets, Competition, and Consumer bill proposal in its 2022 Autumn Statement 2022.

In the Autumn Statement 2022, UK Government announced the introduction of the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumer bill in the third Parliamentary session. The bill follows several consultations in recent years.

The bill will provide powers to the Digital Markets Unit (DMU), change the competition framework, and protect consumers against ‘subscription traps’ and fake reviews online.
