Tell us about unfair contract terms

Unfair contract terms are being included in standard form contracts involving small businesses, causing detriment throughout the community. The Australian Government wishes to protect small businesses by providing them with the same protections available to consumers.

The Treasury is undertaking a consultation process on behalf of Consumer Affairs Australia and New Zealand. We would appreciate your feedback to help us put in place adequate protections for small businesses.

The IPA would also like to hear feedback from members on this submission. Email us your thoughts at youtellus@publicaccountants.org.au

Businesses are also encouraged to fill out an online survey: http://www.consumerlaw.gov.au/content/Content.aspx?doc=ACL_consultations.htm
