The operation and effectiveness of the Franchising Code of Conduct


The final report of the Parliamentary Joint Committee on Corporations and Financial Services had just been released. 

 While I have only flicked through the report, it is looking like the biggest ever shakeup for the franchising industry. By my count, there are 71 recommendations, with many of these recommendations proposing very substantial changes. 

 My personal submission was mentioned once in the report in relation to allegations of some franchisors seeking to set retail franchisee margins (p98).
