I am advised that those matters are already addressed in the consumer protections Acts. I do not think anybody would accept a finance company did not understand the product it was selling. There are provisions in separate legislation already on consumer protection. As I stated in response to the previous issue where there is default or people do not make the payment, issues like that are already covered in other legislation but not this particular Bill.
