From the mid 1990s, Cheap As Chips Franchising Pty Ltd ("Cheap As Chips") has been a franchisor of mobile general and residential and commercial cleaning services and cleaning agents, equipment and other related products.
Since at least 1997, Cheap As Chips has:
unilaterally imposed additional and detailed obligations on its franchisees without consultation or negotiation;
threatened to refuse to allocate work to ("suspend") or terminate the franchise agreements of its franchisees rather than negotiate disputes; and
suspended and terminated its franchisees rather than negotiate disputes.
The Commission considered that since 1 July 1998, the above conduct of Cheap As Chips contravened sections 51 AC and 51AD and instituted proceedings on 30 June 1999 making such claims.
