The Consumer Affairs Act of 1970, Business and Profession Code Section 300, et al, which is the governing law for the Department of Consumer Affairs, requires the Department to represent the interests of California consumers before the State Legislature.

This Legislative Digest summarizes legislation that the Department reviewed on behalf of California consumers during the 2006 legislative year.

We hope that it serves as a useful resource for identifying legislation of interest.
