Enforcement Action under the Enterprise Act
The Enterprise Act 2002 allows us to seek Court Orders against businesses who breach certain consumer protection laws and who act in a way that could harm the rights of the public. However, before taking action the trader will be invited to respond to the allegations against them, and we will work with them in an attempt to bring them up to standard. The trader will also be able to give binding commitments (undertakings) instead of going to court.
