If, as in metropolitan France, the principle of freedom of prices is recognised in New Caledonia in Article Lp. 410-2 of the Commercial Code, the provisions which follow it reveal control which is disproportionate to that carried out in metropolitan France. It is true that New Caledonia has for a long time been subject to price regulation, which is more or less important depending on the time, which changes in economic contexts 1. Since the Organic Law of 19 March 1999, it has been stipulated that this price regulation involves the congress to regulate prices (Articles 22 (20) and 83), with the government having the power to set prices and regulated tariffs (Article 127 (7)). The principle of regulation therefore falls within the remit of the Congress, that of its practical implementation, of the Government. However, over the last decade, price regulation has been characterised by instability and complexity (I). At the very least, price regulation, which undermines the freedom to conduct a business and the benefits of which are discussed 2, is to be intelligible. It is therefore pleased that clarification efforts have been made recently (II), which could still be pursued to increase the readability of the price rules in New Caledonia (III). ; Si, comme en métropole, le principe de la liberté des prix est reconnu en Nouvelle-Calédonie, à l'article Lp. 410-2 du Code de commerce, les dispositions qui lui font suite révèlent un contrôle sans commune mesure avec celui effectué en métropole. Il est vrai que la Nouvelle-Calédonie connaît depuis longtemps une réglementation des prix, plus ou moins importante selon les époques, évoluant aux gré des contextes économiques 1. Depuis la loi organique du 19 mars 1999, il est prévu que cette réglementation des prix fait intervenir le congrès, pour réglementer les prix (art. 22, 20° et art. 83), le gouvernement étant compétent pour fixer les prix et les tarifs réglementés (art. 127, 7°). Le principe de la réglementation relève donc de la compétence du congrès, celui de sa mise ...
