Component price advertising, business snapshot

Under the Trade Practices Act 1974 you are required to ensure that your advertising correctly represents the goods or services you are offering for sale—including its price and any other key features or characteristics.

News for business—Component price advertising will inform you about some recent changes to the rules on component pricing, which will require you to make clearer price representations to consumers.

This publication has been updated to refer to the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 which replaces the Trade Practices ACT 1974 on 1 January 2011.  For more information on the Australian Consumer Law changes see www.consumerlaw.gov.au
