The monopolies commission, or to give it its' full title "The Monopolies and Mergers Commission" exists to prevent monopolies and mergers of companies that may be against the public interest.

If 2 such commissions were in existence at the same moment in time then they could merge.

So by virtue of remaining a solitary public institution the monopolies commission is fulfilling its' role by preventing a future merger that may be contrary to the public interest.
