Unfair Contract Terms Legislation
The Treasury Laws Amendment (More Competition, Better Prices) Act 2022 came into effect on 9 November 2023, introducing a number of significant changes to the Australian Consumer Law.

- What type of contacts does this legislation apply to?
- When is a term deemed to be unfair?
- What happens if a term is found to be unfair?

Canapes and drinks will be provided at this event.
