Workshop on consumer protection bill
As part of the process of developing consumer protection legislation, the industrialisation and trade ministry, through the European Union (EU) Support Implementation Plan for Namibia, hosted a consumer protection workshop last Friday. Key stakeholders attended the consultation workshop in Windhoek to discuss the layperson’s draft bill.
This follows the review of the first draft of the bill from 12 to 14 March, by the appointed drafting committees, comprising officials from the industrialisation ministry, the justice ministry, the Communications Regulations Authority of Namibia (CRAN), the attorney general’s office, and the Namibia Financial Institutions Supervisory Authority (Namfisa).
Executive director at the industrialisation ministry, Salom Haidula, said: "The workshop was aimed at getting the views of stakeholders on the zero draft bill and charting a way forward for the legislation. It is very important for our country."
