[MEDIA RELEASE]: Big win for consumers’ rights in Tasmania
The Local Councils of Tasmania passed a motion to “endorse the activities of the Keep Me Posted Campaign, which is raising awareness about the tendency of large corporates charging people who still wish to receive a paper version of information or bills.” The motion was carried at the Local Government Association of Tasmania (LGAT) General Meeting on 4th November.
“This is a momentous win for Tasmanian consumers’ rights,” commented Kellie Northwood, Executive Director of the campaign, “We congratulate Tasmania for being the first state to promote unilaterally the consumer’s right to choose, leading the rest of Australia.”
