Business Ethics Price fixing in Australia
In 2007, the Federal Court of Australia ordered penalties totalling $3.4 million against four Jurlique companies and founder Dr Jurgen Klein. The court declared that the Jurlique companies and Dr Klein engaged in resale price maintenance in the sale of Jurlique products between 1991 and 2003. Resale price maintenance is prohibited under section 48 of the Trade Practices Act 1974 and occurs where suppliers prevent retailers discounting their products.
