Recommendation
We commend the CMA for its COVID-19 Taskforce which was effective in improving consumer rights in several industries. However, we believe that this taskforce was disbanded prematurely. We ask the CMA to establish an horizon scanning unit that pro-actively engages on consumer law enforcement, as the COVID-19 Taskforce did following an assessment of the effectiveness of the COVID-19 Taskforce.
Government Response Summary
The CMA will be responding separately, deferring the response to a later date.
