Who We Are and What We Do
 

The Consumer Affairs Commission is a government agency established to inform, educate and empowerconsumers to protect themselves in the marketplace.

The work of the Commission is three pronged: we engage in market research, provide complaint resolutionservices and run a vibrant consumer education programme.  All the services provided by the Commission are free as the organization is fully funded by Government.    

The CAC operates under the Trade Act of 1955 and the Consumer Protection Act of 2005.
