Consumer Law Enforcement Forum
CLEF The Consumer Law Enforcement Forum (CLEF) project received funding under the European Commission’s 2005 call for specific projects in the field of consumer affairs.
The project started on 1 October 2006 and will run for three years. What is the project about? This project is concerned with the role consumer organisations can play in making the consumer protection rules developed by the EU fully and equally effective throughout the Community, in particular in the new Member States. Making sure consumer organisations are aware of the enforcement possibilities that are available is the central task of this project, allowing consumer organisations to learn from the experiences of others. The project deals with the involvement and the possible roles of consumer organisations in both public enforcement i.e. getting public authorities to more fully engage with consumer problems and in private enforcement i.e. bringing case to courts via collective action (litigation). more ... WHAT'S NEW? Guidelines for Consumer Organisations on Enforcement and Collective Redress The final guidelines of the project are now available on our website. They are available here.

The primary aim of the project is to establish a Consumer Law Enforcement Forum (CLEF). The opinions therein do not necessarily reflect those of the European Commission or of BEUC.
