There was a high level of participation and we received 240 responses. <\/p>\n<p>We\u2019d like to thank everyone who took the time to take part and pass on their views &#8211; this feedback was really helpful to us. The main issues people raised were that they:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>want the CMA\u2019s content on GOV.UK to be easier to search and to browse through <\/li>\n<li>regularly need to access the old Office of Fair Trading (OFT) and Competition Commission (CC) decisions, and these have been harder to find since the old websites were archived <\/li>\n<li>want to be sent regular updates about changes to case pages and alerts when new cases are opened<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Improving our users\u2019 experience of our web pages is a priority for the CMA. Building on this feedback, we\u2019ve now made changes to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/organisations\/competition-and-markets-authority\">CMA\u2019s homepage<\/a>. The new links in the top section allow users to navigate through our content by specialist area (for example, mergers). We\u2019ve also made it easier to navigate to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/cma-cases\/oft-cc-cases\">closed OFT and CC cases<\/a> from our homepage.<\/p>\n<p>The <a rel=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/insidegovuk.blog.gov.uk\/\">Government Digital Service (GDS)<\/a> has improved the GOV.UK search so that CMA\u2019s cases are easier to find.<\/p>\n<p>From today, you can <a rel=\"external\" href=\"http:\/\/eepurl.com\/3G6Sn\">subscribe to daily email alerts<\/a> about updates to cases and new cases opening. We have added a \u2018CMA case updates\u2019 icon in the \u2018follow us\u2019 section of our homepage.<\/p>\n<p>Further changes will be made to the CMA\u2019s pages over the next few months, including:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>a date search facility will be added to the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/cma-cases\">CMA case directory<\/a>\n<\/li>\n<li>the OFT and CC archived decisions from 2003 to 2014 will be added to the CMA case directory (they will be added in batches, starting with the most recent)<\/li>\n<li>users will be given the ability to subscribe to alerts about updates to individual cases you\u2019re interested in <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Please follow GDS\u2019s <a rel=\"external\" href=\"https:\/\/insidegovuk.blog.gov.uk\/\">Inside GOV.UK blog<\/a> to keep up to date with the latest developments to GOV.UK.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>More navigation has been added to our homepage, and email alerts about CMA cases are now available.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47970"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=47970"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/47970\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=47970"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=47970"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mostafa.openonline.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=47970"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
