For a first point of reference to the Competition and Consumer regime, this is a highly valuable service. LexisNexis produces a single volume, "take to court" service. Our author, Ray Steinwall is highly regarded in this field. He is the General Counsel for Novartis Group (Australia and New Zealand) and is a member of both the Australian Competition Tribunal and the Commonwealth Consumer Affairs Advisory Council. The Competition and Consumer Act 2010 is heavily annotated, including the Australian Consumer Law (which is Sch 2 of Competition and Consumer Act 2010) and the recent Harper amendments. At the start of each Part of the Act, the author has prepared an overview and some history to the development of that area of the Act to make it as easy as possible to follow. This sets each Part in context, prior to the annotations of the individual sections. In addition, our ancillary material is wide ranging for this publication.
