Asked on 23 March 2010

MR STEVENS ASKED THE MINISTER FOR TOURISM AND FAIR TRADING (MR LAWLOR) —

QUESTION:

Will the Minister advise (a) what is being done about the FX Corp job scam when over 100 victims have lost thousands of dollars to the scam and have been left without work and (b) whether the owner of this company will be prosecuted?

ANSWER:

(a)

FX Corp and its operations are currently being investigated by the Office of Fair Trading to determine if there are contraventions of Queensland’s Fair Trading Act 1989.

Should the investigation determine a breach or breaches of fair trading legislation, appropriated enforcement action will be taken in accordance with the Office of Fair Trading’s Compliance and Enforcement Framework.

As the investigation is ongoing I am unable to comment further at this time
