Auctioneer Regulatory Body to be Welcomed
Published August 5th, 2005 in Consumer Affairs, Regulating AuctioneersReports today indicate that the Commission on Auctioneering has recommended that the government set up and independent regulatory body to supervise the practices of auctioneers.

I’m very disappointed with the solution which they have proposed on guide prices. If the proposal as it stands is implemented, it won’t provide a solution at all.
