The results of this research will inform and guide the Commission's future enforcement and education efforts. This is the second of two notices required under the Paperwork Reduction Act (``PRA''), and the Commission seeks additional public comments on its proposed consumer research before requesting Office of Management and Budget (``OMB'') review of, and clearance for, the collection of information discussed herein.
Consumer Benefits and Harms: Distinguishing Resale Price Maintenance that Benefits Consumers From Resale Price Maintenance that Harms Consumers; Public Workshops; Comment Request
The Federal Trade Commission (``FTC'' or ``Commission'') will hold a series of public Workshop sessions at one or more locations to explore how best to distinguish between uses of resale price maintenance (RPM)\1\ that benefit consumers and those that do not, for purposes of enforcing Section 1 of the Sherman Act, 15 U.S.C. Sec. 1, and Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act, 15 U.S.C. Sec. 45 (hereinafter ``Sections 1 and 5''). Among other things, the Workshops will examine when and whether particular market facts or conditions make it more or less likely that the use of RPM will be procompetitive or neutral, and when or whether RPM may harm competition and consumers.
