"On 23 June 2011, Parliament approved the proposal for a Consumer Rights Directive, replacing the previous four directives with one legal document. Firstly, this leads to more transparent legal arrangements for consumer protection in European legislation. The directive above all responds to the fragmentation of law on cross-border commerce, where, with Internet shopping in particular, traders are unwilling to be governed by the different rules of another Member State. The directive above all reintroduces the obligation to inform consumers about place of business, telephone and fax numbers and
mail address, in order to facilitate communication with the trader. The reintroduction of the obligation for traders to reimburse the direct costs for returning goods where the price of the goods does not exceed EUR 50 is also a new development. From the perspective of Czech law, the proposal for a directive will not have a major impact on the legal arrangements for consumer protection, except for these new developments. The new developments apply mainly to distance agreements. I have therefore voted in favour of the proposal for a directive."@en1
