Federal Council Simplifies Consumer Protection: Cancellation for Online Shopping Becomes Even More Convenient
The state representatives addressed a comprehensive agenda in their latest meeting, focusing also on consumer rights in digital commerce. A key topic was the simplification of the cancellation process for online shopping—shoppers will soon be able to exercise their right of return more easily. In addition to this consumer-friendly decision, other important issues were on the agenda: discussions about misleading sustainability claims by companies, questions regarding the arming of the Bundeswehr, and regulations on wolf hunting. While the state governments generally supported the federal government's plans for wolf management, they also expressed their concerns. The cancellation process in e-commerce remains a top priority for consumer protection in Germany.
