Interpretation of Directive 2019/1

Summary/Abstract: The subject of this article is the interpretation of Directive (EU) 2019/1 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 11 December 2018 to empower the competition authorities of the Member States to be more effective enforcers and to ensure the proper functioning of the internal market. In the analysis, the author specifically focuses on Article 4 para. 4 of the Directive, which relates to how a national competition authority is selected. This provision requires that the procedure for selection or appointment be specified in advance in the legislation, be clear and precise. However, according to the author, this does not exclude the possibility of the political nature of the selection process of the candidate, the determination of his professional competence, involvement in political activities, or the term of the elected body.
