Unfair Trading Practices: Discussion
Ms Christine Tacon:
No, it is still six years. I call that a voluntary agreement because it is a voluntary one. To a degree the agreement has trumped it anyway because I have said that if a supplier challenges a deduction the money remains with the supplier until such time as the matter is agreed whereas, in the past, the retailer deducted the money and retained it until things were sorted.
