Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Measures to enhance consumer rights and make them easier to understand, which will also boost the economy by £4 billion over the next decade, are outlined in this draft Consumer Rights Bill. The proposals streamline overlapping and complicated areas from eight pieces of legislation into one consumer Bill. They also introduce new rights for consumers and businesses. Currently consumers spend more than 59 million hours a year dealing with goods and services problems. The Bill provides clarity in areas such as digital content, services and goods. Under the draft Bill consumers will have the right to: get some money back after one failed repair of faulty goods (or one faulty replacement); demand that substandard services are redone or failing that get a price reduction; get a repair or a replacement of faulty digital content such as film and music downloads, online games and e-books. The draft Bill also proposes a set 30 day time period for when consumers can return faulty goods and get a full refund. New measures in the draft Bill that will benefit businesses include: a new requirement for enforcers such as Trading Standards Officers to give reasonable notice to businesses when carrying out routine inspections, reducing costs to business; faster and lower cost remedies for businesses who have been disadvantaged from breaches in competition law; a reduction in on going training costs - businesses will spend less time understanding their obligations or considering different scenarios when training staff.

Download or read book House of Commons - Business, Innovation and Skills Committee: Draft Consumer Rights Bill - HC 697-I written by Great Britain: Parliament: House of Commons: Business, Innovation and Skills Committee and published by The Stationery Office. This book was released on 2013-12-23 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Government's draft Consumer Rights Bill has the potential to consolidate, simplify and modernise consumer law however issues and inconsistencies must be resolved. The current proposals would apply a statutory right that services under a contract must be provided with reasonable care and skill [a fault-based standard]. This does not provide sufficient consumer protection. The Draft Bill should require that services must achieve the stated result, or one which could be reasonably expected [an outcomes-based standard]. As the Bank of Ireland case demonstrated, the right to terminate a contract does not necessarily protect consumers from detriment. This report recommends an addition to the grey list - the indicative list of contract terms which may be regarded as unfair. The Government's proposals for enhanced consumer measures, which would require traders that have breached consumer law to compensate consumers, are welcome. However, private enforcers should also be able to use them. The collective proceedings regime has the potential to improve access to redress for victims of competition law breaches but the Government must clarify the certification requirements for such proceedings. The creation of rights and remedies for digital content is welcome, but the Government must do more to communicate how the proposals will work in practice. Under the draft Bill, the remedies available to consumers of digital content would depend on whether the content is intangible (such as a music download) or tangible (such as a CD). In appropriate circumstances, consumers should have the right to reject and obtain a refund irrespective of whether they purchase intangible or tangible digital content

Book Synopsis Consumer Rights Bill by : Great Britain: Department for Business, Innovation and Skills
Download or read book Consumer Rights Bill written by Great Britain: Department for Business, Innovation and Skills and published by Stationery Office. This book was released on 2014-01-23 with total page 67 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Consumer law sets out what consumers should expect from what they buy, and what rights and responsibilities consumers and traders have if things do not go to plan. The UK's consumer law has developed over many years: currently eight separate pieces of legislation cover key consumer rights whilst some 60 pieces of legislation cover the investigatory powers of consumer law enforcers. Confusion is exacerbated by unnecessary complexity and ambiguity in parts of the law. The draft Consumer Rights Bill to reform this situation was published in June 2013 (Cm. 8657, ISBN 9780101865722) following extensive consultation with consumers, businesses and enforcers, the Law Commission and the Scottish Law Commission. Views on the Bill were invited and the Business, Innovation and Skills Committee also carried out a pre-legislative scrutiny (sixth report of session 2013-14, HC 697-I, ISBN 9780215065933). The Bill now presented to Parliament (Bill 161, session 2013-14, ISBN 9780215067210) is the result of the consultation process. This document explains how consumer rights are being reformed by the Bill, in particular how it will: streamline key consumer rights covering contracts for good, services, digital content and the law relating to unfair terms in consumer contracts into one place; clarify the law where it is confusing or written in legal jargon; modernise the framework for the digital age; deregulate to reduce business burdens and costs; and enhance measures to protect consumers. The problems with the current law and how the Bill will address them are outlined.

Download or read book Consumer Law and Socioeconomic Development written by Claudia Lima Marques and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-07-14 with total page 472 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book reflects the research output of the Committee on the International Protection of Consumers of the International Law Association (ILA). The Committee was created in 2008, with a mandate to study the role of public and private law to protect consumers, review UN Guidelines, and to model laws, international treaties and national legislations concerning protection and consumer redress. It has been accepted to act as an observer not only when the UNCTAD was updating its guidelines, but also at the Hague Conference on Private International Law. The book includes the contributions of various Committee members in the past few years and is a result of the cooperation between the Committee members and experts from Australia, Brazil, Canada and China. It is divided into three parts: the first part addresses trends and challenges in international protection of consumers, while the second part focuses on financial crises and consumer protection and the third part examines national and regional consumer law issues.

Book Synopsis Consumer Contracts and the Restatement Project by : David McGowan
Download or read book Consumer Contracts and the Restatement Project written by David McGowan and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 41 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A recent controversy over the American Law Institute's draft Restatement of the Law of Consumer Contracts (the “Draft”) raises four questions: (i) What is the state of basic contract principles such as formation or unconscionability with respect to consumer contracts; (ii) does the Draft get the existing law right; (iii) how much can contract law do to give consumers a leg up in the modern economy; and (iv) should the Draft do more? The positive critiques of the Draft are weak. Cases that do not contradict the Draft are cited as showing that it is wrong, district court opinions that have not even been adopted in their home circuit are praised as “leading cases,” and the rules of formation are decried as unsettled and messy, when the standard is clear. The answers to questions (i) and (ii) are that the cases are reasonably settled on principles that are accurately reflected in the Draft. Normative questions (iii) and (iv) are interesting and hard. Critiques of the Draft presume that contract law could do a lot to help consumers but that the Draft would thwart such efforts. There are limits to what contract law can do to give consumers a leg up, however, and the Draft does not narrow those limits. Sweeping statements, such as that the Draft “if adopted, would drive a dagger through consumers' rights,” are excessive, even if limited only to doctrines such as unconscionability. Critics are notably short on cases that go their way under current law but which would come out differently under the Draft. The Restatement project presumes the exercise of nonpartisan judgment. Some criticisms of the draft, notably those contained in a letter signed by numerous state attorneys general, are more political tracts than analytic critiques. Because the Draft does a good job analyzing and distilling the law, the real question in this debate is whether the ALI and the Restatement project as a whole can withstand efforts, such as the AGs' Letter, to use the tools and standards of retail politics to defeat the analytic approach of the Draft. To the extent such efforts succeed, the Restatement concept as a whole will fail.
