Professor Philip Booth writes for Conservative Home
In an opinion piece for Conservative Home, IEA Senior Academic Fellow Professor Philip Booth makes the case for reform of the Competition and Markets Authority, as outlined in his recent open letter to John Penrose MP.
Philip writes: “John Penrose MP is currently conducting a review of competition policy. Right at the top of his list should be competition in government-provided services and the way in which government itself, especially through regulation, impedes competition.”
