Hong Kong’s antitrust watchdog has taken an alleged cartel to a tribunal against six decoration contractors and three men over rigging public housing renovation services.

According to Wednesday’s court filing, the commission accused the decoration contractors of coordinating prices when providing renovation services to at least 429 units at Ming Tai House and Chi Tai House of On Tai Estate, a public housing estate in Kwun Tong under the Hong Kong Housing Authority, from around June to November in 2017.
