A competition may be restricted not only by undertakings, but also by public authorities in the exercise of their powers resulting from the generally binding legal regulations. With the aim to prevent this restriction of competition, the legislator has defined the restriction of competition, which is set out in § 39 of the Act on Protection of Competition. Although by its intensity or ramification the agenda of the application of § 39 of the Act cannot be compared with the agenda of application of prohibition of “classic“ forms of restriction of competition by undertakings (agreements restricting competition, abuse of a dominant position, concentration), in the existing decision-making practice of the Antimonopoly Office, the Council of the Antimonopoly Office, the Regional Court in Bratislava and the Supreme Court of SR we can identify some generalising features describing the most frequent cases of conduct or omission of public authorities resulting in the restriction of competition. The disclosure of these typical interventions of public authorities into competition may help a better orientation of public authorities as well as undertakings, consumers or parties damaged by such authoritative interventions into competition.

The article is focused on a witness in administrative proceedings and in generally it deals with the basic principles of the activities of public authorities and in particular the principles and rules of the activities of public administration authorities, carried out by misdemeanour procedure. The theoretical part is based on the characteristics of the rule of law, the principles and rules of the right to good administration and right to a fair trial as well. On this basis, at the very first place, the article is focused on some procedural provisions related to the proceeding on misdemeanours, especially on the documents for a decision, evidences and procedural standing of witnesses. The legislature which encompasses such an administrative offences is represented by the Misdemeanours Act No. 372/1990 Coll. (Act on Misdemeanours) and by Act No. 71/1967 on Administrative Proceedings. The aim of the article is to provide the theoretical analysis of the part of decision-making activities of administrative authorities as well as case law which, in the default of evidence, prefer instead of the rule in dubio pro reo, the use of non-objective evidences. The author pronounced opposition to the conclusions and approaches that are expressed in a large part of administrative decisions and the court decisions, in applying the principle of material truth and the free evaluation of evidence, and points the negative trend in breach of the principle of legality. The reasoning described in the article is also based on the analysis of sub-issues such as non-precise use of terms of law, bias of administration employees, evaluation of evidence and so on. The focus of argumentation to the detriment of using the testimony of a policeman, who clarifies offense, is a crosscutting principle of legality.
