General Scheme of Representative Actions for the Protection of the Collective Interests of Consumers Bill 2022: Discussion
Mr. Jeremy Godfrey:
When we take enforcement action, we always engage with the entity. There are due process rights in the public sphere. The CAI made the point that it is not against consultation prior to injunction but is against the consultation process being so extended that it renders injunctions pointless. We would obviously agree that if injunctions are appropriate, the consultation process should not be unduly prolonged.
