March happenings

On 6 March, the report on the BIS consultation on implementing the consumer rights directive was published.

The deadline for implementing the late payments directive is 16 March. Legislation has already been passed and will come into effect on the day.

The end of March sees the conclusion of the Law Commissions' consultation on unfair terms and the definition of "exempt term" in consumer contracts, and its report and recommendations to government. The government will respond by the end of May. The result will feed into the Consumer Rights Bill, the government's flagship consumer protection measure.
