Undertaking
The Australian Indoor Tanning Association Pty Ltd provides the solarium industry with educational material and training courses on the use of solarium equipment.
The Commission considered that the Association had distributed misleading promotional material because it contained statements suggesting that solarium tanning brings health benefits and carries no risks. The Association ceased distributing the material when contacted by the Commission. The Association provided a Section 87B undertaking that it will not make the statements and that it will distribute a corrective statement to its customers warning about the risks of solarium tanning.
