Description

Corones’ Australian Consumer Law explains in a detailed yet accessible treatment the substantive rights and remedies of consumers, and the obligations of traders under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL).

The ACL is a uniform consumer protection law that applies in all jurisdictions throughout Australia. This book explains the law created by the ACL and the policy underlying it. This book covers the general and specific provisions of the ACL, and the remedial and enforcement regimes. It examines how the different parts of the ACL inter-relate, the scope for overlap and why each provision is necessary to provide complete consumer protection.

Corones’ Australian Consumer Law, Fifth Edition is based on the work of Professor Stephen Corones, author of the first three editions. This edition has been revised and refreshed to reflect the now established position of the ACL in Australian law and its own growing body of case law.

The Fifth Edition covers reforms increasing the threshold price for the application of the consumer guarantees, and increasing maximum penalties and fines, as well as introducing penalties for including unfair terms.
