Inhaltsangabe

For anyone working with business and consumer contracts, Exclusion Clauses and Unfair Contract Terms provides essential information and advice on the statutory controls available to guard against the misuse of exclusion clauses. This popular text provides practical guidance on exclusion clauses and unfair contract terms, containing greater analysis and explanation of legislation and case law than more general works on contract. The sixth edition provides the most up-to-date coverage available and contains a number of so far unreported cases on vital areas. It focuses on the important changes brought about by the Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations 1999 which came into force in October 1999, replacing the 1994 Regulations, and considers the large body of new case law that has arisen as a result. Both judicial and legislative controls are covered, and the author also considers the view taken by the Office of Fair Trading. New material covered includes: * The Unfair Terms in Consumer Contracts Regulations 1999 * Use by the courts of the reasonableness test * The operation of the provisions of section 3 of the Unfair Contract Terms Act 1977 * The Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 * The effects of the devolution of powers to Scotland and Wales
