From the Paper:

"In analyzing the legal issues concerned with consumer products, it is evident that identifying liability for any harm or injury that ensues from the purchase and use of a product is the central issue. Liability is determined by a number of factors, including the accuracy of ads and labels, the responsibilities of consumers to read and heed the information in ads and labels, and a number of other relevant issues, such as the applicability of exclusions and limitations. Evaluating the various legal remedies available to protect UK consumers from faulty products and fraudulent advertising requires not only an examination of consumer protection law, but assessments of their effectiveness. An in-depth understanding of the remedies concerning breach can be demonstrated by discussing specific case examples."
