This Order excludes land and vertical agreements, as defined in the Order, from the prohibition on anti-competitive agreements imposed by section 2 of the Competition Act 1998. The Order provides for power to withdraw the exclusion from a particular agreement, and that an agreement to the like object and effect between the same parties to an agreement from which the exclusion is withdrawn is not excluded.
