The article is contribution to the discussion concerning general clauses in the legal regulation and the law application process. Starting from general clauses theoretical definition it drives attention to general clauses in competition law, focusing interest on abuse of a dominant position legal regulation in Act on Protection of Competition especially after its last amendment in 2014 was adopted. In context of legal regulation based on general clause and demonstrative list of the most often existing practices of abuse it explores reasons why essential facilities doctrine was deleted from the legal regulation. The Slovak legislator defends this step with the argument that there is special legal regulation of essential facilities neither in the EU competition law (Art. 102 TFEU) nor in the legal regulation of other member states. Essential facilities are represented as a special institute developed in the case law and not requiring specific legal regulation in the Act on Protection of Competition. The article argues that using the EU competition law as a model for national regulation does not mean the necessity to copy this regulation precisely and compares the Slovak act with the Czech regulation where essential facilities doctrine is comprised in the legislative text.

The Slovak Republic has fulfilled its obligation to transpose the EU Directive on private enforcement of competition law (2014/104/EU) approving the Act No 350/2016 Coll. on certain rules regulating actions on recovery of damage caused by competition rules violation. Although the act is in force for a couple of months by now there is a serious doubt concerning working of this legal regulation in practice. Based on the US successful experience with the private enforcement of competition law the article informs about the legal regulation of the so called horizontal framework of collective redress in the EU and afterwards explores the ambitions of the Slovak legislator in this field. It draws attention to the main difference resulting from the comparison of the respective EU recommendation and the reality in the Slovak republic. Whereas in EU recommendation is the general regulation of collective redress covering more specific branches of law foreseen (e. g. consumer protection, environmental law, competition law), in the Slovak republic the ambition of the class actions regulation is by now restricted by the framework of consumer protection regulation (Consumer Code comprising also class actions is being prepared). The article offers also other alternatives to this legislative solution that perhaps correspond better to the presented EU approach.

It explores differences in understanding the key concepts – undertaking, consortium, economic activity - from the point of view of both branches of economic regulation. At the same time it offers solutions how to develop competition in public procurement – on one hand through adequate interpretation of the relevant concepts, on the other hand, eventually, by amending the public procurement legal regulation.
