Download or read book The Plain Language Requirement in Terms of Section 22 of the Consumer Protection Act 68 of 2008 as Applied to Consumer Contracts written by Takatso Seifo Rachel Theledi and published by . This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Consumer Protection aims to protect the rights of the consumers. Through the protection of the rights of the consumer, there is a balance being created between the supplier and consumer. The introduction of the plain language requirement by the Consumer Protection Act 68 of 2008 has brought about a new dimension in the relationship between consumers and suppliers when concluding consumer contracts. The plain language requirement places a duty on suppliers to ensure that the consumers understand the contents of the consumer contract clearly. Therefore, the plain language requirement requires the suppliers to ensure that the provisions of section 22 of the Consumer Protection Act 68 of 2008 are fulfilled. The purpose of this study is to investigate the provisions section 22 of the Consumer Protection 68 of 2008. The investigation involves the assessment of benefits and challenges of the plain language requirement to consumers and suppliers in consumer contracts. The investigation reveals that the satisfaction of the plain language requirement as applied to consumer contracts poses a burden on suppliers. The outcomes of this study reveal there is need to have guidelines in place for suppliers. These guidelines will enable the suppliers to determine whether they have satisfied the plain language requirement when concluding consumer contracts with consumers.

Download or read book The Impact of Plain Language on Legal English in the United Kingdom written by Christopher Williams and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2022-08-23 with total page 133 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers insights into the ways in which plain language has influenced the language of the law in the United Kingdom, critically reflecting on its historical development and future directions. The book opens with an overview of the theoretical frameworks underpinning plain language and a brief history of plain language initiatives as a foundation from which to outline ongoing debates on the opportunities and challenges of using plain language in the legal domain. The volume details strands where plain language has had considerable impact thus far on legal English in the UK, notably in legislative drafting, but it also explores areas in which plain language has made fewer inroads, such as the language of court judgments and that of online terms and conditions. The book looks ahead to unpack highly topical areas within the plain language debate, including the question of design and visualisation and the ramifications of digitalisation, contributing to ongoing conversations on the importance of plain language both in the UK and beyond. This book will be of particular interest to students and scholars interested in the intersection of language and the law as well as related disciplinary areas such as applied linguistics and English for Specific Purposes.
