Propozycje wzmacniania uczciwej konkurencji poprzez platformy konkurowania branżowego

Abstract

The publication contains an innovative proposal for the introduction into Polish law of two legal institutions that will support fair competition. These institutions will concern the so -called platform competition, which is not widely known in Poland (especially recently promoted by the EU Commission). In the article, the author first describes for whom these new information resources will be directed, then suggests their thematic scope. Importantly, he also suggests how to create new structures of presentation, so as to facilitate comparison. Finally, he shows how to ensure that only useful information resources are placed on these platforms, i.e. only those which can be used to compare offers. The first solution is to introduce directly on the platform several new information obligations. They will facilitate the comparison of even very complex offers. The second proposal relates to the institution of accreditation, that is, to create new mandatory and cyclical evaluations of larger entrepreneurs in specific industries, performed by accreditation bodies. The author proposes that, following the example of higher education, such accreditations would be performed only by independent bodies, with experts with a high level of knowledge. In the publication, both new solutions are not only thoroughly described, but for rapid implementation, the article also gives the existing legal constructions, which can be quickly adapted.
