Tradies And The Trade Practices Act

摘要

The TPA has been described by a number of superlatives, for example, "one of the most significant pieces of economic law Australia has produced".188 Section 52, in particular, may be the most controversial combination of 23 words in Australian jurisprudence. Moreover, the legislation has had a significant impact on the construction industry and not just when considering the form that a claim will take in respect of a dispute over some aspect of a construction project. The TPA has the capacity to influence parties' conduct throughout the process from inception to completion.
