The Competition Authority of Iceland published today its decision regarding Hf. Eimskipafelag Islands in a case which started in the year 2002. Eimskip is of the opinion that the investigation of the case has taken far too long. Eimskip feels that the decision is wrongly addressed to Eimskip as a new company is today responsible for shipping activities of the company and other companies have taken over its rights and obligations. Eimskip has decided to appeal the case to the Competition Appeals Commitee and a final decision will therefore only be taken later. Fines in the case amounted to 310 million ISK.
