UK Competition Authority Investigates School Fund Bid-Rigging
(Reuters) - Britain's competition regulator said on Wednesday that it has launched an investigation into suspected bid-rigging in relation to a key government fund for improving the condition of school buildings.
The Competition and Markets Authority said it has reason to suspect that several companies providing roofing and construction services, including building contractors and technical advisors, "illegally colluded" to rig bids.
