Law Commission Announces Major New Project on Consumer Class Actions Regime

On 20 April 2026, the Law Commission of England and Wales announced a major new project on the introduction of a collective class action regime for consumer actions. The review will explore how a new regime could be designed, and the benefits and risks associated with a consumer class actions regime.  The review follows significant changes made to the consumer protection landscape with the entry into force of the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act 2004 (“DMCCA”) last year (which  granted the CMA the power to directly enforce consumer protection law (without needing to go to court),  issue infringement notices, impose fines of up to 10% of annual global turnover, order consumer redress and issue other directions. The proposal to permit collective consumer actions is the latest in a series of steps targeted at bolstering the consumer law enforcement regime.  As the CMA ratchets up its enforcement activity in the areas of drip pricing and fake reviews (discussed in our recent briefings here: CMA Imposes First Financial Penalty Under New Consumer Powers in Drip Pricing Crackdown; CMA Steps Up Enforcement on Fake and Misleading Reviews: What Businesses Need to Know), it is worth considering how rights to bring collective consumer actions will change the UK’s consumer protection landscape.  The Law Commission has invited views on the project, providing a valuable opportunity for stakeholders to influence the scope and shape of any regime ultimately put in place.
