Abstract
Consumer Law in the UK has '"growed like Topsy". It has been decided by our current government that now is the time for a clearing up, a clarification and a simplification. There is also a EU Directive to be implemented. So here it comes, the Consumer Rights Bill. The government officials have already been told that their plans would need a Bill of about 400 clauses and that if they really mean business they should propose one of about 50. So we anticipate a short Bill and a lot of secondary legislation. In the Queen's Speech on the 8th of May we were promised a draft Bill. It is thought that this may appear later in the summer. This article considers some of their agenda items.
