Competition and Consumer Point-in-Time Service Updates

Monday 23 July 2018 @ 10.59 a.m.

The Competition and Consumer Point-in-Time Service has been updated to include the Competition and Consumer Amendment (Australian Consumer Law Review) Regulations 2018 (Cth).

Competition and Consumer Amendment (Australian Consumer Law Review) Regulations 2018

The Competition and Consumer Amendment (Australian Consumer Law Review) Regulations 2018 amend the Competition and Consumer Regulations 2010 to give effect to two proposals included in the Australian Consumer Law Review – Final Report (ACL Review Final Report).

The Regulations prescribe alternative mandatory text to be included in warranty documents for the supply of services and services bundled with goods. The regulations also remove the requirement for suppliers of services to disclose cooling off rights to consumers where these rights do not apply to those services.

This new Regulation has been updated in the Point-in-Time Competition and Consumer Service current to 28 June 2018. (NB: Subscription required).
