串谋操纵竞标价 三家承包商遭罚款近42万元！
本地有三家承包商，涉及在游泳池和其他水景维修服务招标串谋操纵竞标价，遭到竞争与消费者委员会罚款41万9014元！
这三家承包商分别是CU Water Services、Crystalene Product和Crystal Clear Contractor，主要业务为提供泳池、水疗设施（Spa）、喷泉和其他水景设施等的维修服务。
2017年9月，竞消委调查上述三家公司，发现CU Water与Crystalene之间达成协议，串通竞标；此外，CU Water也和Crystal Clear之间取得另一协议。
在2008年至2017年期间，三家公司竟涉及多达521次串谋操纵投标价格行为！220客户受影响，这包括吉真宾乐雅酒店（Parkroyal on Kitchener Road）和雅登苑（Adam Park）共管公寓等。
原本应互相竞标，但是经“协商”后，一家公司可要求另一竞标公司，开出较高报价，使得自己的报价更具优势。
不过，竞消委指责，三家公司涉及串谋操纵投标价格，触犯竞争法令第34节的反竞争协议条款。
CU Water Services30万8680元遭罚款30万8680元，至于Crystalene Product的罚款为4万1541元，以及Crystal Clear Contractor是6万8793元。
后两者是在当局展开调查后，申请加入竞消委“宽免计划”（Leniency Programme），向当局提供违规行为相关资料，以换取从轻发落。
