Article: Consumers must be taught about their rights

There is a need for consumers to be taught more about their consumer rights and the Consumer Protection Act, says Minister in the Presidency: National Planning Commission Trevor Manuel. Speaking at the 2011 Consumer Rights Conference held in Midrand today, Manuel said many families were in debt because they lacked knowledge on financial issues.
 
Before that they need to be taught how to read and write and hopefully comprehend what they have read...
 
Many families are also in debt because they see something they want,dont have the money but get it anyway ;)
 
Such a pity the CPA can't be used against government .. all those expensive cars for doing f-all, hey Manual.
