Fair Trading Amendment Bill

Bills are proposals to make a new law or to change an existing one. Only Parliament can pass a bill. Each bill goes through several stages, giving MPs and the public the chance to have their say.

The objectives of this bill are to ensure that the Fair Trading Act 1986 remains fit for purpose as business practices and digital markets evolve, strengthen deterrence of unfair trading conduct, support appropriate consequences for breaches, and enable efficient and effective enforcement.
