    Does it constitute a misleading omission not to provide information on the quality of a product?
  • Deċiżjoni

    In a short reasoning, it was held by the court that the information on the quality of a product is essential information.

    Next, the defendant could not prove such information was communicated to the plaintiff.

    As a result, according to the court, the plaintiff had not been provided with all relevant information in order to make an informed transactional decision. Hence, the defendant had breached the prohibition on misleading omissions.
