Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Ftc Franchising Regulation: Hearing Before the Subcommittee on Transportation and Hazardous Materials of the Committee on Energy and Commerce, House of Representatives, One Hundred Third Congress, Second Session; August 3, 1994; Serial No. 103-157
Ms. Lambert. Mr. Gillmor will be joining us shortly and we will give him the Opportunity to make his opening statement. The sub committee will come to order, and the Chair asks unanimous con sent that any opening statements that may be submitted by mem bers may be included in the record. I would first like to welcome the witnesses to this oversight hear ing, some of whom have come a long way to be here. I would like to remind them that their written statement will also be included in full in the hearing record, and that they should therefore limit themselves to 5 minutes for their oral presentation. That is pretty standard around here. This hearing is an oversight hearing of the activities of the Fed eral Trade Commission in the regulation of the franchise industry. We have no reason to believe that the ftc is not trying to the best of its ability to enforce the franchise disclosure rule and to bring necessary cases against deceptive franchisors, and in the last 2 years the Commission has significantly increased the number of cases it has brought on franchise disclosure rule violations.
