Because the defendant asserted a common defence of collusion in breach of the First Conduct Rule under the Competition Ordinance, the court granted transfer of the competition allegation to the Competition Tribunal and ordered that the High Court actions be listed and managed together with the Tribunal proceedings; general discovery was dispensed with and discovery was confined to directly relevant documents and those referred to in the pleadings, with High Court pleadings to incorporate Tribunal pleadings on competition issues.
