In this context it considers, in particular, what we mean by fairness (both procedurally and in substance); the tools used; the European dimension; the move from general principles from the more piecemeal approach typical in UK legal tradition; and the further move in this direction as a result of the Unfair Commercial Practices Directive.

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.
Book Synopsis Protecting Consumers from Unfair Contract Terms by : Paul Latimer
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.

Book Synopsis Unfair Contract Terms in European Law by : Paolisa Nebbia
Download or read book Unfair Contract Terms in European Law written by Paolisa Nebbia and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2007-02-08 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book examines Directive 93/13 on Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts and its implementation with a twofold aim: first, to understand the extent to which the Directive has influenced and will influence fundamental notions and principles of contract law in the domestic legal systems of the Member States; second, it examines the extent to which the domestic legal traditions of the Member States have influenced the process of drafting of the Directive and, more importantly, will affect the way that the Directive is interpreted and applied in national courts. The focus is mainly on English law (including the 2005 Unfair Terms in Contracts Bill) and on Italian law, but frequent references are made to the French and the German systems. At the same time, the book has a broader, more 'European' concern, in that it aims to distill from the existing Community acquis and from the history and rationale of Directive 93/13 notions and concepts that could guide its interpretation. It is well known that Community law uses terminology which is peculiar to it, and that legal concepts do not necessarily have the same meaning in EC law and in the law of the various Member States: every provision of Community law must be placed in its context and interpreted in the light of its own objectives and rationale, and of the objectives and rationale of Community law as a whole. In this respect, this book aims to identify the contours and features of the emerging European legal tradition, and to assess the impact that this may have on the domestic traditions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Any contract is likely to have its fair share of exemption clauses and failure to read the small print is often the biggest cause for complaint between litigators.

Book Synopsis A Comparative Analysis of Policing Consumer Contracts in China and the EU by : Jiangqiu Ge
Download or read book A Comparative Analysis of Policing Consumer Contracts in China and the EU written by Jiangqiu Ge and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-02-07 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book seeks to fill a gap in the existing literature by describing the formulation, interpretation and enforcement of the rules on consumer contracts in China and the EU, and by mapping key similarities and differences. The study addresses selected issues regarding consumer contracts: sources of law in the two jurisdictions are first discussed to set the scene. Afterwards, one preliminary issue - how to define the concept of a consumer contract - and two substantive topics - unfair terms and withdrawal rights - are dealt with. Apart from the descriptive analysis, the book also provides possible explanations for these comparative findings, and argues that the differences in consumer contract rules can be primarily attributed to a disparity of markets. The book offers a valuable resource, particularly for researchers and practitioners in the fields of private law and comparative law.
