Attorney General Enforcement; Reporting
Reference only: This requirement is not currently tested by the Privisy scanner. It is included for reference. Consult a qualified attorney to assess your compliance posture.
What it requires
Enforcement is folded directly into Vermont's general Consumer Protection Act rather than the standalone "unfair and deceptive act" language used in the introduced bill: a violation is deemed a Consumer Protection Act violation, enforced exclusively by the Attorney General, with no private right of action. A separate transitional provision requires a 60-day notice-and-cure period for violations occurring between January 1, 2028 and June 30, 2029. The Attorney General must report annually to the Legislature on enforcement activity.
