Council Regulation No 17 of 6 February 1962, First Regulation implementing Articles 81 and 824 of the Treaty,5 has allowed a Community competition policy to develop that has helped to disseminate a competition culture within the Community. In the light of experience, however, that Regulation should now be replaced by legislation designed to meet the challenges of an integrated market and a future enlargement of the Community.
