About this event
Join the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) for this online event to help you understand the consumer provisions under the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers (DMCC) Act. This new legislation grants direct enforcement powers to the CMA in relation to consumer protection law.
This event will:
contextualise new consumer provisions of the DMCC within the wider consumer landscape
bring together Trading Standards Wales to increase familiarity with, and discuss feedback about, key consumer provisions of the DMCC
provide an opportunity for other consumer DMCC issues to be raised and discussed
About the DMCC Act
New powers under the DMCC Act enable the CMA and Trading Standards Wales to investigate, determine and take enforcement action to address:
infringements of certain consumer protection laws
breaches of undertakings given
breaches of enforcement directions
providing false or misleading information in connection with the exercise of enforcement function
non-compliance with statutory information notices
Who should attend
If you are a key player in the Welsh Consumer landscape and who are affected, directly and indirectly, by these new powers, this event is tailored for you.
Please note, this will largely repeat content provided by CMA in recent DMCC Act webinars.
