Oh yeah it’s explained here…
1590/4/12/23 Microsoft v CMA: Failure to respect the understanding on which Tribunal
Proceedings are livestreamed
8 June 2023
The Tribunal is one of a limited number of courts in the United Kingdom with the statutory
right to “livestream” its proceedings (The Competition Appeal Tribunal (Recording and
Broadcasting) Order 2022, 2022 No. 156), which the Tribunal does whenever appropriate.
Generally, proceedings are livestreamed in the interests of open justice, but issues of
confidentiality may restrict or even preclude livestreaming. All livestreamed hearings of the
Tribunal begin with a reminder from the Chair that the proceedings are not to be further
broadcast, recorded, transmitted or photographed. This reflects the rules that apply in court
and it is appropriate that the same regime apply in respect of the livestream. The rules
regarding “livestreaming” have generally been complied with, and there has been no breach
requiring consideration of contempt jurisdiction.
The Tribunal has had drawn to its attention a number of photographs of the livestreamed case
management conference in Microsoft v. CMA on 30 May which have been taken, manipulated
and broadcast in what can only be the clearest violation of the rules. These violations – which
appear to be deliberate – are taken extremely seriously by the Tribunal, not only because they
show a disregard for the rule of law and the court’s authority, but also because the concerns
of those opposed to livestreaming (hitherto shown to have been unfounded) are given
substance.
The Tribunal will keep this matter under the closest review. The Tribunal urges those involved
in these breaches of procedure to avoid repetition and to do what they can to remove, retract
and destroy the infringing material.
