UK consumer laws will be merged into a single consolidated law, according to Government proposals. Currently, there are 12 statutes and Regulations, some of which overlap. The UK will also need to bring into force the European Union’s Consumer Rights Directive when it is passed at EU level, which is expected to happen in the coming weeks. The consolidated Consumer Bill of Rights will cover everything from rights to take back or replace or repair consumer goods, to unfair contract terms, to cooling off rights in distance or doorstep contracts, through to remedies for misleading or aggressive commercial practices. Ed Davey, the Consumer Minister, hails this initiative as good news for consumers and businesses.
