i. To determine the market structure, supply chain and profile of industry players that are involved in manufacturing and distribution of selected key building materials;
ii. To identify the prices of selected key building materials at the manufacturing and wholesale levels;
iii. To assess competition in the manufacturing and distribution levels of selected key building materials;
iv. To identify anti-competitive practices among the industry players in the manufacturing and distribution levels of selected key building materials;
v. To determine the extent of market distortion and whether government intervention is necessary in curbing anti-competitive conduct in the selected key building materials’
market; and
