ICN will encourage the dissemination of antitrust experience and best practices, promote the advocacy role of antitrust agencies and seek to facilitate international cooperation.
Memorandum on the Establishment and Operation of the International Competition Network
The remainder of the Steering Group is comprised of members who serve two-year terms and are recommended by the outgoing Steering Group members. Steering Group members are confirmed by consensus of ICN Members in odd-numbered years at the annual conference.
Any ICN Member, including a member of the outgoing Steering Group, may ask the outgoing Steering Group to be nominated to be on the next Steering Group. The outgoing Steering Group may also seek the interest of a particular ICN Member to offer its name as a candidate.
In making its recommendations, the outgoing Steering Group shall consider:
That the Steering Group’s membership should reflect the geographic diversity of ICN Members;
Each nominee’s degree of participation in ICN activities; and
The desirability of confirming new Steering Group member(s) in each round.
For more information on the roles and responsibilities of the Steering Group, see the ICN’s Operational Framework.
