Description
[This article reviews the proposal to make serious cartel conduct a criminal offence in Australia. It analyses the extent to which the proposal captures the criminality of the conduct to which it will apply; in particular; its culpability, harmfulness and moral wrongfulness. Two key assumptions underpin this analysis. First, criminalisation makes the morality of serious cartel activity a relevant consideration in the design and application of the new law Secondly, recognition of the moral dimension will enhance the prospects of the criminal regime securing the support necessary for its effective enforcement It should also boost the regime's deterrence value by facilitating internalisation of relevant moral norms in the business community. The article concludes that there is still much work to be done in refining and even rethinking aspects of the new offence to ensure that it properly reflects the criminal nature of hard core cartels.] I INTRODUCTION
