Abstract
Under directive 2005/29/CE (regulating unfair commercial practices) consumers have no private right of redress against the trader. The proposed revision of the Italian civil code (d.d.l. 1151/2019) aims to provide a solution to this lack of protection and opts for a remedy between nullity and more generic invalidity of contract. This writing deals with advantages and disadvantages of this proposal and suggests the adoption of a new remedy (unilateral termination of the contract), in order to avoid critical aspects of the current law and to facilitate consumers, usually reluctant to initiate private lawsuits.
