On November 7, 2007, the Federal Acquisition Regulatory Council issued an interim rule integrating the liability and litigation protections administered by DHS under the SAFETY Act with federal agency purchases of anti-terrorism technologies and services. Agencies now have standard procurement clauses to use when purchasing products and services for homeland defense, including clauses to allow the acceptance of offers contingent on the issuance of SAFETY Act designations or certifications and equitable adjustments for situations in which SAFETY Act coverage is denied after award.

European Commission Publishes Landmark Guidelines on Exclusionary Abuses by Dominant Companies
On 3 September 2026, the European Commission adopted new Guidelines on the application of Article 102 TFEU to abusive exclusionary conduct by dominant undertakings. The Guidelines follow a public consultation on a draft published in August 2024 and reflect substantial stakeholder feedback. They replace the Commission's 2008 Guidance on enforcement priorities (which ceases to apply 30 days after publication of the new guidelines in the Official Journal) and represent the most significant reset of the Commission's Article 102 enforcement framework in nearly two decades. The Commission's stated aim is to set out principles and operational guidance, enhance legal certainty, and help companies self-assess their exclusionary-abuse risk.
