product supply
Equivalent of 'code de la consommation' in French - can anyone tell me whether this is meant to be the Consumption Act (my document concerns the purchase of telecommunications equipment), or the Consumers' Act? All I seem to find in connection with Consumption is either food consumption or commonsense consumption.
UK English needed - many thanks!

Consumer Sales Act
Just a guess - could it be the Swedish Consumer Sales Act, which seems to apply to any products purchased by a consumer from a retailer. See ref for descriptions of various related acts. But I cannot find an exact cross reference to konsumtionslagen.

Comment: "Thanks, Peter. I think, from what I've seen in one place, that 'köp' or 'salg' after konsumtion may be missing from the original term. I'll go with you!"
