In particular it looks at the growing expectations of what competition and consumer law can achieve, as well as the challenges of analysing the competitive effects of conduct of multi-sided platforms, and in implementing merger law for digital platforms and the Commission’s thinking on these matters.<\/p>\n Avoiding Liability under the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)<\/strong><\/em><\/a> \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Dyson Heydon<\/p>\n Can one party to a contract exclude its liability to another party to that contract for misleading or deceptive conduct? The article discusses authorities throwing up instances where a contractual clause may negate the allegedly misleading or deceptive character of conduct; or may negate the first contracting party\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s responsibility for the conduct of another person; or may negate reliance. The article also discusses the oft-repeated contention that the statutes prohibiting misleading or deceptive conduct are public policy statutes, and that it is necessary to treat clauses excluding them as illegal in that they are against public policy. The article argues that the reasoning underlying these ideas has never been fully or critically analysed, and that if it were the outcome could be different.<\/p>\n AUTHORISATIONS AND NOTIFICATIONS<\/a> \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Editor: Rosannah Healey<\/em><\/p>\n TELECOMMUNICATIONS<\/a> \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Editor: Niloufer Selvadurai<\/em><\/p>\n CASE NOTE<\/a> \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Editor: Christopher Hodgekiss SC<\/em><\/p>\n LANDMARKS<\/a> \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Editor: Christopher Hodgekiss SC<\/em><\/p>\n SNAPSHOTS<\/a> \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Editors: Damien O\u00e2\u20ac\u2122Brien QC and Douglas Shirrefs<\/em><\/p>\n REPORT FROM NEW ZEALAND<\/a> \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Editor: Debra Wilson<\/em><\/p>\n REPORT FROM ASIA<\/a> \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Editor: Andrew Christopher<\/em><\/p>\n Report from North America<\/a> \u00e2\u20ac\u201c Editor: Christopher Pleatsikas<\/em><\/p>\n For the PDF version of the table of contents, click here: AJCCL Vol 28 No 1 Contents<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n
