Section 99I of the Commerce Act provides that, following a request by a recognised overseas regulator for compulsorily acquired information and/or investigative assistance, the NZCC must consider and be satisfied that: • there is in force a co-operation arrangement with the requesting party; • the provision of information/assistance will, or is likely to, assist the recognised overseas regulator in performing its functions or exercising its powers in relation to competition, fair trading or consumer credit law or the regulation of telecommunications;  • the provision of information/assistance will not be inconsistent with the terms of the relevant co-operation arrangement; and  • providing the information/assistance will not significantly prejudice New Zealand’s international trade interests.
