Consumer protection: other; applicability of consumer protection act; modify. Amends sec. 4 of 1976 PA 331 (MCL 445.904).

This bill modifies the Michigan Consumer Protection Act to clarify which transactions and activities are excluded from its coverage. It maintains existing exemptions for regulated industries like banking, insurance, and motor carriers, while also preserving protections for media publishers who do not knowingly spread false advertisements. The legislation places the burden of proof on businesses claiming exemptions from the act's requirements. These changes ensure that specific industries and media operations remain outside the scope of consumer protection claims unless they violate specific state or federal regulations.
