I would like to applaud the authorities in response to the news article, ‘Six businesses fined for price control violations’, published in the Bulletin on August 30, 2024.
It is assuring to know there is an enforcement team actively monitoring supermarkets and mini marts to make sure that the populace isn’t getting ripped off.
I’m a young mother, who depends on baby formula to keep her child fed. But it is also the one product that is often marked up.
I hope that this is the beginning of the end for these errant businesses as there are still so many of them, who have escaped the attention of the authorities, even well-established supermarkets.
Watchful Eye
