Competition and Consumer Law Compliance Training 2023

The Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) is one of the most litigated areas of law and will invariably impact your organisation. Whether it be in your dealings with consumers, the supply and distribution arrangements you enter into or the interaction with your competitors, understanding how to identify and navigate the risks involved is an absolute must.

Recent legislative changes have broadened the CCA’s impact on organisations and increased the severity of its penalties so it is even more important that organisations have a good understanding of their obligations under the CCA. 

This training session will cover:

Competition

• Cartel conduct

• Defences to cartel conduct

• Concerted practices

• Industry associations and professional services

• ACCC current focus areas

Consumer

• Misleading and deceptive conduct

• False and misleading representations

• Consumer guarantees

• 2022 ‘consumer law’ case review

This will be an interactive training session aimed at supplementing compliance education and arming attendees with a practical understanding of these key competition and consumer law concepts.
