There were 23 significant submissions provided on the exposure draft. They ranged from the Law Council of Australia to a state government, through to the areas of great concern around airlines raised by previous speakers in the debate. For example, Flight Centre provided a submission. Of course, the ACCC made a substantial submission on the way in which they wanted the Trade Practices Act to continue to be interpreted. There were also some individual submissions from CHOICE, the Consumer Action Law Centre, the Real Estate Institute of Australia and the Property Council of Australia. There were a significant range of key stakeholders.
