More Efficient Collective Redress Mechanisms? Will the New Deal Directive on Representative Actions for Protecting the Collective Interests of Consumers Improve the Resolution of Mass Harm Situations in the Visegrad 4 Countriesn

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Classic injunction actions before a court are very rarely used instruments in the Visegrad 4 countries, they are too expensive, too long proceedings, with uncertain results. On one hand, a lost court case can cause insolvency for the organization and on other hand a won case cannot ensure a direct compensation of the harmed consumer. Therefore, the Visegrad 4 consumer protection organizations tend to move to other redresses. After a short introduction to existing injunction actions and their shortcuts in the Visegrad 4 counties (1), the article explains why the way of amending representative actions, as recommended by the new Commission Proposal cannot provide more efficient or effective justice in the Visegrad 4 countries (2), and based on the best practices of the Visegrad 4 countries I will propose alternative instruments, such as public enforcement and more flexible enhanced consumer measures by administrative authorities, which have proved quite efficient in resolving mass harm situations (3).
