(1) In the cases specified in Section 66(1), the competition authority may order the immediate enforcement of the decision if this is required by the public interest or the prevailing interest of a party.
(2) An order under subsection (1) may be issued before the appeal is filed.
(3) The court dealing with the main proceedings may, upon application, entirely or partly restore the suspensive effect of the appeal if
1. the conditions for issuing an order under subsection (1) were not satisfied or are no longer satisfied, or
2. there are serious doubts as to the lawfulness of the decision under appeal, or
3. for the party concerned, the enforcement would result in undue hardship not justified by prevailing public interests.
In cases in which the appeal has no suspensive effect, the competition authority may suspend enforcement; enforcement is to be suspended if the conditions set out in sentence 1 no 3 are satisfied. The court dealing with the main proceedings may, upon application, order the suspensive effect in full or in part if the conditions under sentence 1 no 2 or 3 are satisfied. If a third party has lodged an appeal against a decision pursuant to Section 40(2), the third party's application for an order pursuant to sentence 3 is admissible only if the third party proves that its rights are infringed by the decision.
(4) An application pursuant to subsection (3) sentences 1 or 3 shall be admissible before the appeal is lodged. The applicant shall substantiate the facts upon which the application is based. If the decision has already been enforced at the time of the court ruling, the court may also order the enforcement measures to be lifted. Orders restoring or ordering the suspensive effect of the decision may be made contingent upon the furnishing of security or upon other conditions. They may also be limited in time.
(5) Decisions on applications pursuant to subsection (3) may be amended or repealed at any time.
