Dear Mr Fularz,

 

Thank you for your emails of 28 May and 19 June 2020, addressed to the Directorate General for Competition of the European Commission. These have been passed to us for response, as we are the Unit that deals with the application of the competition rules of the EU to the consumer goods sector.

 

We understand that you express concern regarding alleged discrimination of tall children in the market for push scooters handlebars as well as with respect to possibly misleading claims as to the materials used in those handlebars (titanium).

 

We have carefully considered the information that you have provided to us and would begin by explaining the legal background. EU competition law is based on two main rules: Article 101 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union (TFEU) prohibits anti-competitive agreements between firms, while Article 102 TFEU prohibits firms that are dominant on a given market from abusing their position.

 

On the basis of the facts as you describe them, it seems unlikely to us that EU competition rules would have any bearing on the situation. There seems to be no indication that the practices you describe would be the result of an anti-competitive agreement within the meaning of Article 101 TFEU. Furthermore, the information that you have provided does not suggest to us that the company complained about would hold a dominant position on any relevant market or that any abuse would have taken place. As for misleading advertising claims, this is an issue that is generally dealt with under national consumer protection law.

 

All things considered, the Commission would not take your case further on the basis of the information provided. As a result, we regard your information as market information and not as a formal complaint, which must comply with certain legal requirements as set out in Article 5 of Commission Regulation 773/2004.*

 

Yours sincerely,

 

Peter van Loon
