Dealing with previous settlement agreements
AFCA has enhanced the clarity and transparency to its longstanding approach to exclude a complaint that has been the subject of a previous full and final settlement between the parties (except where special circumstances apply).
A new discretionary rule, C.2.2g) has been inserted to govern when AFCA will exclude complaints of this nature. This rule does not change AFCA’s current practice, as always AFCA will not exercise its discretion lightly and rule C.2.2(g) will not be applied in circumstances where the prior settlement was obtained via unfair conduct including fraud and duress.
