ISSA settles with Fair Trading Commission

The Inter Secondary School Sports Association, ISSA, has settled with the Fair Trading Commission relating to practices contrary to fair trade during its allocation of tickets for the 2015 ISSA Boy's and Girl's Athletics Championships.

The Fair Trading Commission says ISSA issued several advertisements inviting members of the public to see the event.

However, it added that some ticket holders who turned up at the National Stadium were denied entry to the venue.

The Fair Trading Commission says ISSA breached section 37 of the Fair Competition Act which prohibits businesses from making to the public, representations that are false, misleading or likely to be misleading.

ISSA has therefore agreed to settle the matter by paying the Fair Trading Commission's costs and is also required to issue a public apology.
