Consumer Scotland may also undertake investigations— into sectors or practices which it considers cause, or may cause, harm to consumers, or otherwise for the purpose of fulfilling its general function.

Consumer Scotland must have regard to— the activities carried on by specified persons and any other persons with the same functions as, or similar functions to, Consumer Scotland, and the desirability of working in collaboration with others where appropriate.

But nothing in subsection (4) is to be taken as implying that regard may not be had to the interests of other descriptions of consumers. Consumer Scotland must have regard to the environmental impact of the actions of consumers. Consumer Scotland must have regard to the importance of communicating in an inclusive way. In subsection (3)(a), “specified” means specified in regulations made by the Scottish Ministers.

Nothing in this Act imposes on Consumer Scotland a duty to exercise any of its functions on behalf of or at the request of a particular consumer. Consumer Scotland may, by notice, require a person falling within subsection (2)— to provide it with such information as is specified or described in the notice and which it requires for the purpose of exercising its functions, and to do so within such reasonable period as is specified in the notice. The persons referred to in subsection (1) are– a designated regulator, a regulated provider, any other person who supplies goods or services in the course of a business carried on by that person, any other person specified, or of a description specified, by the Scottish Ministers by regulations for the purposes of this subsection.

Regulations under subsection (2)(d) may provide either– that section 10 (failure by a designated regulator) is to apply in relation to a person specified, or of a description specified, by the regulations as it applies to a designated regulator, or that section 12 (enforcement by the court) is to apply in relation to such a person.

Consumer Scotland may publish any statement received under subsection (1). Where a regulated provider fails to comply with a notice under section 9(1), Consumer Scotland may refer the failure to the relevant designated regulator. Subsection (1) applies only to the extent that the notice relates to information which is held or may be obtained by the regulated provider in the person's capacity as a regulated provider. Where a failure is referred under subsection (1), the relevant designated regulator must— consider any representations made by Consumer Scotland or the regulated provider, and determine whether the regulated provider is entitled to refuse to comply with the notice by virtue of provision made under section 13 (exemptions from requirement to provide information).
