Consumer Rights Act 2015

298.This section also sets out factors that a court should take into account when determining whether a term is fair, notably that it should consider the specific circumstances existing when the term was agreed, other terms in the contract and the nature of the subject matter of the contract. This assessment is known as the ‘fairness test’ (see also section 63 as regards the list of terms that may be used to assist a court when considering the application of the fairness test).
