Article R464-9-3 of the French Commercial code

If the company refuses the measures notified or does not comply with the injunction or does not pay the amount stipulated in the settlement, the Minister for the Economy refers the matter to the Competition Authority. Comments made by the companies to which the injunction or settlement is addressed as part of the procedure are not forwarded to the Competition Authority.

The refusal or acceptance of one or more of the undertakings concerned has no effect on the situation of the other undertakings that were the subject of the same procedure.

Original in French 🇫🇷
Article R464-9-3
Dans le cas où l’entreprise a refusé les mesures notifiées ou n’a pas exécuté l’injonction ou encore n’a pas versé la somme prévue par la transaction, le ministre chargé de l’économie saisit l’Autorité de la concurrence. Les observations formulées par les entreprises destinataires de l’injonction ou de la transaction dans le cadre de la procédure ne sont pas transmises à l’Autorité de la concurrence.


Le refus ou l’acceptation d’une ou de plusieurs entreprises concernées est sans effet sur la situation des autres entreprises ayant fait l’objet de la même procédure.
