• Semester 2 (External)

Synopsis

The  purpose of this course is to introduce students predominantly  to
Part IV of the Trade Practices Act which is usually not considered  in
undergraduate  business courses. The rationale behind the  legislation
itself will be considered along with the substantive prohibitions  and
restrictions which impact on various business activities. Some aspects
of  consumer  protection will also be covered such as  the  provisions
dealing   with   misleading  and  deceptive  conduct  (Part   V)   and
unconscionability (Part IVA).
