ACCAN recently submitted to the Australian Treasury’s consultation about the implementation of the recommendations of the ACCC’s Digital Platforms Inquiry Final Report. The Final Report provided recommendations to:
- Promote competition among the services offered by digital platforms;
- Enhance privacy protections for consumers;
- Provide for a dedicated external dispute resolution body for consumers seeking to make a complaint about digital platforms; and
- Prohibit certain unfair trading practices and terms currently faced by consumers.
ACCAN strongly supports the contents of the final report and our submission outlines how we believe that the recommendations can be progressed over the coming months.
