This Order alters the exclusion in Schedule 7 to the Fair Trading Act 1973 for the carriage of passengers or goods by air. The effect of the amendment is to enable the Director General of Fair Trading to make monopoly references under the Fair Trading Act in relation to domestic flights and international charter flights. The effect is also, by virtue of section 51(2) of the Fair Trading Act, that monopoly references by the Secretary of State in relation to such flights will no longer be required to be made jointly with another responsible Minister.
