Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new and timely work provides up-to-date and detailed analysis of the new Unfair Contract Terms Law (UCTL) that was introduced as part of the Australian Consumer Law reforms of 2010, and which took effect in each state and territory from 1 January 2011. The UCTL represents a radical change in consumer protection law and in contract law. In Unfair Contract Terms Law in Australia experienced author and senior lecturer Dr Jeannie Paterson explains the operation of the UCTL and considers the implications for standard boilerplate terms in consumer contracts. The work also examines the background to the reforms and utilises precedents drawn from similar regimes that have operated in Victoria and the UK. UNFAIR CONTRACT TERMS IN AUSTRALIA will be highly useful for litigation purposes and compliance work. It will appeal to competition, consumer and commercial solicitors and barristers as well as regulators involved in drafting, reviewing and enforcing standard form consumer contracts. Traders dealing with consumers will find this work invaluable as they review their contracts to ensure compliance with the legislation. UNFAIR CONTRACT TERMS IN AUSTRALIA is a vital resource for the adjustment to, and ongoing compliance with, the new law.

This book was released on 2004 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It was reported to the Ministerial Council on Consumer Affairs (MCCA) in August 2002 that fair trading and consumer protection jurisdictions across Australia share a growing number of problems with unfair terms in consumer contracts in various areas of the marketplace. Consumer contracts are increasingly complex and it is becoming correspondingly difficult for consumers to identify important terms, rights and responsibilities and potential costs associated with purchase agreements. New technologies and borderless markets further complicate the picture. At its 2002 meeting MCCA therefore directed the Standing Committee of Officials of Consumer Affairs (SCOCA) to establish a national working party to investigate policy options to address unfair terms in consumer contracts and the merits of adopting a more nationally consistent and effective regulatory regime ... The purpose of this Discussion Paper is to seek the views of the wider community on the need for unfair contract terms regulation and the best model for achieving this." -- from the Introduction, p. 5.

Download or read book Protecting Consumers from Unfair Contract Terms written by Paul Latimer and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The consumer movement in the 1960s was the first step towards creating community demand for laws providing for the protection of consumers. Australia responded with consumer protection laws in the 1970s, and with unfair contract laws in the 1980s at the state level, since replaced by Commonwealth provisions in the Australian Consumer Law. The EU drafted and adopted in 1993 the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Directive to provide protection from unfair contracts. The Directive has now resulted in consumer contract laws in Europe ranging from prohibition in some EU jurisdictions to the low impact approach of rendering unfair terms void or non-existent in other EU jurisdictions such as in France. The latest European legislation is now to be found in the new unfair contract amendments in the UK in the Consumer Rights Act 2015 (UK), which has replaced earlier UK legislation from the 1970s. In proscribing unfair contract laws, the UK Act carries forward and updates the current fairness test, and includes a 'grey list' of consumer contract terms 'which may be regarded as unfair. This article reviews the operation of unfair contract laws from an Australian comparative perspective, including developments in Europe and the UK. It includes some comparisons from outside the EU with parallel developments in the Asia-Pacific area to demonstrate law making in response to consumer demands in different jurisdictions and to show that cultural difficulties can be overcome to ensure an adequate response to unfair contracts for the benefit of consumers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This new edition continues to provide a critical introduction to the legal regulation of consumer markets, situating it within the context of broader debates about rationales for regulation, the role of the state and the growth of neo-liberalism. It draws on interdisciplinary sources, assessing, for example, the increased influence of behavioural economics on consumer law. It analyses the Europeanisation of consumer law and the tensions between neo-liberalism and the social market, consumer protection and consumer choice, in the establishment of the single market ground rules. The book also assesses national, regional and international responses to the world financial crisis as reflected in the regulation of consumer credit markets. This edition incorporates recent legislative and judicial developments of the law, blending substantial extracts from primary UK, EU and international legal materials.
