We joined 16 other energy and consumer advocacy groups welcoming the introduction of an Unfair Trading Prohibition to the Federal Parliament.
Program Director of Energy and Water Justice, Douglas McCloskey:
‘People shouldn’t have to navigate unfair and confusing practices that leave them paying more or not getting the services they expect. Businesses must be held accountable for unfair practices, including in essential energy services, so people can access the services they need without disastrous consequences. This is a particularly critical protection for people already experiencing vulnerability. We need to see these laws introduced quickly and applied consistently across all services consumers rely on.’
