U.K. antitrust watchdog the Competition and Markets Authority said Tuesday that it has told Alphabet Inc. (GOOGL) it will investigate whether the $2.6 billion acquisition of Looker Data Sciences will result in a lessening of competition.

The antitrust regulator has set a deadline of Feb. 13 for its phase 1 decision after notifying the parties on Dec. 16 of the launch of its merger inquiry.

The CMA earlier this month served an initial enforcement order on Alphabet and Google over the acquisition of Looker Data Sciences.

Google, a unit of Alphabet, agreed in June to pay $2.6 billion for Looker, a maker of business-intelligence and data-analytics software, to bolster its cloud business.
