addressed. We commend the government’s commitment to
change the market to level the playing field and boost
competition.

to do better for consumers, remove inappropriate prompt
payment discounts, win-back and saves since 2014, so it’s
good to see we’re finally seeing action on these unethical
practices.

report’s areas of focus and are heeding the call to
collaborate. We’re working with other independent
retailers to engage with the report’s recommendations and
