To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Innovation, Science and Trade, with reference to the Government response to consultation on the implementation of the new subscription contracts regime, how he intends to define the point of supply for businesses producing (a) perishable or (b) custom goods.
The Government consultation on subscription contracts considered how perishable or bespoke (custom) goods should be treated, including how refunds should work if a consumer exercises their cooling-off cancellation rights.
The Government Response explains that refunds for perishable or bespoke goods will depend on whether the goods have been ‘supplied’ to the consumer during the cooling-off period. ‘Supply’ is already an established concept in consumer law. In practice, this means that if the perishable or bespoke goods have been supplied, the consumer can remain liable to pay for those goods as well as the cost of delivery.

The subscriptions rules protect consumers from paying for subscriptions they don’t want. This supports a fairer and more level playing field for businesses as consumers can spend their money elsewhere across the economy.
Authorities including Trading Standards and the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) will be able to take enforcement action against non-compliant businesses, including issuing financial penalties. The Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act also strengthens enforcement by giving the CMA direct enforcement powers.
Consumers have new cancellation rights under the regime. If traders breach certain duties, the consumer can cancel their subscription contract and may receive a refund.

The Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2024 introduces new consumer protections for consumers in subscriptions. Once the new regime comes into force, businesses will be required to provide clear information before the consumer signs up, send regular reminders about renewals, and ensure it is straightforward to cancel. This includes allowing online cancellation if the consumer can sign up online. In addition, consumers will have a new 14-day renewal cooling-off period after a trial or a contract of 12 months or more auto-renews.
Government has consulted on regulatory proposals to implement the regime and the response can be found here.

The Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act (DMCCA) 2024 sets out new consumer protection rules for subscription contracts. Once the rules are in force, traders will have to provide clear information about subscription contracts before a consumer signs up, ensure that arrangements to exit the contract are straightforward, and provide a 14-day cooling-off period after a 12month+ contract or trial auto-renews.
The government has recently published its response to the Consultation on the Implementation of the new Subscription Contracts Regime: Consultation on the implementation of the new subscription contracts regime - GOV.UK. We engaged with the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) during the consultation.
The CMA and local Trading Standards can take enforcement action against breaches of consumer protection law, including breaches of the existing and new subscription rules once they are in force. The DMCCA gives the CMA new powers to impose fines of up to 10% of global turnover on businesses who infringe consumer protection law. We will continue to engage with the CMA ahead of new regulations commencing.
