New clause 7 relates to online marketplaces being held liable for products purchased via their platforms. We agree that there is scope for improvements to be made in this area, which is why I have asked the Law Commission to conduct a full and comprehensive review of product liability legislation and make suggestions for reform. Following its report, which we anticipate will be released next year, we will legislate, if necessary, to ensure that our product liability laws are up to date and fit for the future.
