NSW Fair Trading Act 1987 for CISOs
What does NSW Fair Trading Act 1987 require of a CISO?
The NSW Fair Trading Act 1987 applies the Australian Consumer Law as a law of New South Wales and adds State duties: disclosure of prejudicial terms and referral fees, event ticket resale caps, gift card expiry rules, commercial agent licensing, industry codes, and the enforcement, penalty notice and trading prohibition powers behind them. Under NSW Fair Trading Act 1987, which defines 20 controls, a CISO's work is deciding which controls you own outright, which you share and which belong to another team, then holding the evidence for the first group.
Which NSW Fair Trading Act 1987 controls land on the CISO

NSW Fair Trading Act 1987 defines 20 controls across 7 domains that directly affect the CISO role. Understanding which controls fall within your ownership, which are shared, and which are owned by other teams is the foundation of effective compliance management.
