TASK B
2.1 Consequences of providing consumer with misleading information
Government has formed certain rules and regulations in favour of customers for making
them aware about their fundamental rights in context to misleading information. Thus, specific
results would occur if any venture will communicate the same. There are some acts imposed by
legal system are as follow :
The Unfair Trading act 2008 : This is also known as Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading
Regulations. It is a powerful norm that offers safeguarding to the users against misleading data
which is being conveyed by a trader. In addition to this, it also generates criminal offences if that
individual breaches the principles of regulations. This is used for prohibiting any kind of
deceptive omission or actions which in turn causes the customer for taking a wrong decision that
he or she may has not taken if that incorrect information was not provided (Brennan and et. al.,
2011). This has been examined that such type of uncorrected data is inter - linked with different
things or comprising of wrongful information in terms of quality, ingredients, date of
1

manufacturing as well as expiry, quantity and also about the suitableness of merchandises for
specific purpose and many more. For example, conveying in – correct message regarding content
or quality of alcohol in any particular drink. After investigation, it has been found that CPRs
includes three types of misleading actions which are mentioned as follows :
 Ordinary deceptive , this means those human action that is misled includes false data for
deceiving the clients. For example, when any company provides spurious information
about services being offered by them. Like if they have mentioned that their hotel would
provide air conditioner rooms but failed in doing so either intentionally or not.
 Confusions emerged in regard with challengers' goods and services, trademark as well as
trade names. For instance, if two companies is having same merchandises and their
trademark is also having somehow similar.
 The third misguided activity occurs when any merchandiser get failed in complying with
the organisation and configurable commitments in certain code of conduct which has
been taken by them and hence they are bounding or pressurising the trader by that law.
Thus, members of Marriott should follow stated legislations and implement the same in
their business.
2.2 Extent of employer liability in the protection of consumers
The managers should be liable if they failed in completing their responsibilities while
protecting users in getting engaged in unfair or partial trade. In addition to this, they should also
be liable in case if they broke any rules related to customer protection act. There are various
claims in contracts which are described below :
 Sales of Goods Act 1979 : This law is applied if any matter is associated with
suitableness and quality of products has got breached and such things are implemented
under the client contract wherein manager enters into with user (Smith Morgan and
McAtamney, 2011). Every employer is obligated to insure that their deliverables are of
good in context to quantity and quality as well. Apart from this, it should be suitable for
which it had been purchased by clients. And if such things are not met, then customer has
legal power to claim against such unfair action.
Advantages :
 Balances protection of users and their freedom to contract.
