I cannot comment on the individual circumstances of the case. However, the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (CCPC) is the statutory body responsible for promoting compliance with, and enforcing, competition and consumer protection law in Ireland. The CCPC strive to improve consumer welfare across the economy by enforcing over 40 legislative instruments, including product safety legislation.
They provide information to consumers about their rights, personal finance and product safety, through a consumer helpline, a dedicated section of their website, public awareness campaigns and through their various financial education initiatives.
