Description

FREE EBOOK included with every new print book purchase!

This 33rd edition of Australian Commercial Law has undergone a radical revision with a focus on the core commercial law topics. Chapters about supplementary topics are available in the complimentary eBook version of the text. This has enabled a more in-depth treatment in each chapter. Numerous additional cases, statutes, articles and books have been added, including many comparative references from other common law jurisdictions.

Significant changes include:

  • A new chapter on the registration of personal property security interests (Chapter 9).
  • Expanded treatment of personal property law (Chapter 1).
  • Sale of Goods (Chapter 3) has expanded coverage of the meaning of “goods”, merchantable quality, fitness for purpose, and contracts for work and materials; along with the Queensland Court of Appeal decision in Garmin Australasia Pty Ltd v B and K Holdings (Qld) Pty Ltd [2019] 3 Qd R 191, concerning retention of title clauses.
  • Bailment (Chapter 5) includes the Victorian Court of Appeal decision in Sell Your Gold Pty Ltd v Australian Diamond Trading Corp Pty Ltd (2018) 57 VR 595, dealing with rights against third parties.
  • Consumer Protection (Chapter 6) incorporates the new consumer data right introduced by the Treasury Laws Amendment (Consumer Data Right) Act 2019 (Cth); along with the High Court decisions in ASIC v Kobelt (2019) 93 ALJR 743 (unconscionable conduct in financial services); Berry v CCL Secure Pty Ltd (2020) 94 ALJR 715 (damages for loss of an opportunity); and Moore v Scenic Tours Pty Ltd (2020) 94 ALJR 481 (damages for distress or disappointment).
  • Consumer Credit (Chapter 10) includes the increased sanctions under the Treasury Laws Amendment (Strengthening Corporate and Financial Sector Penalties) Act 2019 (Cth); the remedies introduced by the Treasury Laws Amendment (Design and Distribution Obligations and Product Intervention Powers) Act 2019 (Cth); and the avoidance of conflicted remuneration under the Financial Sector Reform (Hayne Royal Commission Response – Protecting Consumers (2019 Measures)) Act 2020 (Cth).
  • Insurance (Chapter 11) includes the unfair contract terms provisions introduced by the Financial Sector Reform (Hayne Royal Commission Response – Protecting Consumers (2019 Measures)) Act 2020 (Cth) and the stronger enforcement regime under the Treasury Laws Amendment (Strengthening Corporate and Financial Sector Penalties) Act 2019 (Cth).
  • Intellectual Property (Chapter 16) incorporates the changes made by the Intellectual Property Laws Amendment (Productivity Commission Response Part 2 and Other Measures) Act 2020 (Cth).
