Jurisdiction
The Australian Consumer Law (ACL) is Schedule 2 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth). It provides a single, national consumer protection law covering consumer guarantees for goods and services, unfair contract terms, misleading or deceptive conduct, unconscionable conduct, product safety and information standards, liability of manufacturers for goods with safety defects, and enforcement and remedies. The ACL is enforced by the ACCC at the Commonwealth level and by state/territory consumer protection agencies. Major amendments in 2022 introduced civil penalties for unfair contract terms.
