While President Greg is in- H absentia (which I can only assume is in either Italy or Greece), and seeing as though I badgered him for a column last month while he was leisurely travelling the melancholy country side of greater Europe, I thought this month I would leave him alone and conjure up some words in his stead. What a month is lined up in August. First off is the monthly run to the Woodwork Cafe in Bungendore on Sunday 12th, don’t forget to let Mike and Jo know if you are going. The evening of Saturday 25th is club’s Annual Presentation dinner. Our premier event for the year, is not to be missed. It’s a fabulous night with great food and bet- ter company. Time is drawing near so let Gail know if you are intending to go. September will see the AGM take place so consider what you can offer the club and members by nominating for a Committee position. Some incumbents are required to stand down due to reaching their limit as prescribed in the constitution, so give it a thought and leave your mark. With the new financial year upon us, now is the time to identify a new recipient as our club charity. The new committee will deliberate any and all submissions re- ceived. Do you have a favourite ACT charity? The Gathering of the MG Faithful in Wagga is on again in September. It is a great weekend where you don’t have to cook or make beds. Just come along, relax and have a good time. We look forward to seeing you there. Breakfast at Poppy’s on Sunday mornings is proving popular. Come along and en- joy a casual and very relaxing breakfast and bevy’(s). Do you have any ideas on what to do or where to go within the club? Maybe you have an idea for a workshop day, an ad-hoc weekend away, or even a celebration. Put your ideas forward to the committee or raise it at a General Meeting, your input makes all the difference. And with that, I look forward to Greg being back next month Mark Horsfield August 2018 Tappet Chatter 5 6 MG Car Club Canberra August 2018 Torque MG Car Club Canberra on the Web Website: (http://mgcccanberra.org.au) View our website for information on upcoming events, past events and Gallery's Facebook Social Page: (https://www.facebook.com/groups/MGCCCSocial) See what other club members are doing, interesting articles from around the web, or, just catching up or chatting.

  • Franchisor Failure: an Assessment of the Adequacy of Regulatory Response
    FRANCHISOR FAILURE: AN ASSESSMENT OF THE ADEQUACY OF REGULATORY RESPONSE Jennifer Mary Buchan LLB (Otago), LLM (Melbourne) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Law Faculty of Law Queensland University of Technology August 2010 i Keywords administration, asymmetry, Australia, bankruptcy, benchmark, best practice regulation, business consumer, consumer protection, contracts, Corporations Act 2001 (Cth), cost benefit, disclaim, disclosure, due diligence, education, executory contract, exploitative contract, fail, franchise agreement, franchisee, Franchising Code of Conduct, franchisor, incomplete contract, insolvency, ipso facto clause, lease, liquidator, onerous contract, policy, premises, receivership, regulation, relational contract, Retail Leases Act 1995 (NSW), remedies, stakeholder, standard form contract, Trade Marks Act 1995 (Cth), Trade Practices Act 1974 (Cth), unconscionable conduct, winding up. Franchisor Failure: An Assessment of the Adequacy of Regulatory Response i ii Abstract Franchisor failure is one of the most problematic areas of the franchise relationship. It impacts negatively on landlords and other suppliers, but the contracting parties that are currently without legal rights to respond when a franchisor fails, and thus without consumer protection, are its franchisees. In this thesis I explore the current contractual, regulatory and commercial environment that franchisees inhabit, within the context of franchisor failure. I conclude that ex ante there are opportunities to level the playing field through consumer protection legislation. I also conclude that the task is not one solely for the consumer protection legislation; the problem should also be addressed ex post through the Corporations Act. ii Franchisor Failure: An Assessment of the Adequacy of Regulatory Response iii Table of Contents Keywords ................................................................................................................................................
