United Kingdom, Scottish Consumer Council
The Scottish Consumer Council (SCC) was set up by government in 1975.
Their purpose is to promote the interests of Scottish consumers, with particular regard to those people who experience disadvantage in society.
While producers of goods and services are usually well-organised and articulate when protecting their own interests, individual consumers very often are not. The people we represent are consumers of all kinds: they may be patients, tenants, parents, solicitors' clients, public transport users, or simply shoppers in a supermarket.
