  • Headnote

    Within the context of the book which focuses on the development of Digital Contract Law in the EU, this Chapter examines the transposition of Directive 2019/770 on digital content and services, and Directive 2019/771 in relation to smart goods in Ireland in Parts 2 and 3 of the Consumer Rights Act 2022. The Chapter provides a detailed analysis of these legal measures based on a standard template used throughout the Book, addressing definitions and scope; conformity; liability of the trader, remedies, commercial guarantees, time limits, rights of redress and relationship with other remedies, before concluding that the transposition of these Directives is broadly welcomed as it fills a major gap in Irish consumer protection, providing a detailed and coherent legislative framework, while at the same time reflecting a further ‘Europeanisation’ of Irish consumer law.
