Reforms to the unfair contract terms (UCT) regime under the Australian Consumer Law have now been in place for 12 months, with Australian businesses incurring considerable time and expense in updating their contracts and business practices to ensure compliance, for fear of being forced to pay potential million-dollar penalties.

This seminar will discuss the ramifications of the new regime one year one, including the significant High Court case of Karpik v Carnival. The session will discuss issues including:

  • What contracts are affected; 
  • How the reforms have impacted small businesses and consumer contracts;
  • What is considered an unfair contract term?
  • Existing contracts and automatic renewal clauses – avoid existing contracts attracting new penalties;
  • Higher penalties and wider reach for breach of unfair contract terms;
