Plain English Summary

1/10 complexity

This Proclamation formally brings the National Consumer Credit Protection Act 2009 into effect on 1 April 2010, activating its core consumer credit protections. It matters because, without this commencement notice, the Act’s responsible lending and credit licensing rules would not have been legally enforceable — affecting lenders, brokers and anyone borrowing for personal, domestic or household purposes.
