The Northern Ireland Trading Standards Service is responsible for ensuring that businesses comply with various pieces of consumer protection legislation.
The key challenge for the NI Trading Standards Service is to protect consumers and honest traders against sharp practice and unfair trading and to bring about compliance through working in partnership with the business community and other public protection organisations.
