“We prioritise the issues impacting the Australian economy, consumers and businesses in Australia.”
Our priorities
Consumers are now, more than ever, making purchasing decisions on environmental grounds. We'll be investigating a number of businesses for making potentially false or misleading environmental claims.
The expansion of digital platforms in Australia has brought benefits, but also created risks and harms that our current consumer and competition laws are not always able to address. We're examining these issues as part of inquiries we conduct and law enforcement cases.
With more Australians choosing to shop online, consumers often rely on reviews and testimonials when making purchases. We're conducting a sweep to identify misleading testimonials and endorsements by social media influencers.
Work on some of the biggest issues facing consumers and businesses.
Join our team of smart and dedicated people from all walks of life to collaborate on meaningful matters and make a significant and lasting impact for all of Australia.
