REGULATORY REFORM

This Order is made under section 1 of the Regulatory Reform Act 2001. It reforms the law in section 3 of the Unsolicited Goods and Services Act 1971 (“the Act”) which imposes requirements as to how agreements may be made for entries in directories. The Order adds one further method by which a person may agree to an entry where that entry is a repeat or renewed entry in a directory. Failure to comply with a method in the Act makes the charge unenforceable or recoverable and the person claiming the charge will commit an offence if he demands payment unless he believes that the requirements in the Act had been complied with.
