Australian Consumer Law commences
On 1 January 2011, a national law for fair trading
and consumer protection was introduced - the Australian Consumer Law (ACL).
The ACL applies to all sectors of the economy and to all Australian consumers and businesses. The Office of Fair Trading will be hosting seminars across Queensland from 31 January to 14 March 2011.
These seminars will discuss business obligations and the increases in consumer protection under the new law, as well as provide an opportunity to ask questions. Click here for more details.
