VPBC March event with Minter Ellison Rudd Watts

Update your knowledge of Consumer Protection Laws at our March Event. This month's guest speakers are Richard Wells and Marilyn Mrkusich from commercial law firm Minter Ellison Rudd Watts.

They will discuss how consumer protection laws impact on the marketing and sale of goods and services:

- Marketing claims: Did you know that true claims can now be in breach of the law?
- Fine print: When is "fine print" appropriate?
- Comparisons: When can you safely compare your product to a competitor's?
- Spam: Does your electronic marketing comply with law?
- Direct sale: Are you aware of new obligations for telephone and 'door to door'
- Contract terms: 'Unfair contract terms' will be illegal in certain contracts from 18 March 2015 - are you prepared?

Light refreshments will be provided. This free event is open to all local businesses with the support of Heart of the City.
