Sažetak
This paper gives an overview of the three important aspects of consumer protection in the process of the adjustment to the standards and norms of the European Union: legislative and implementation aspects and, the last but not the least important, the aspect of consumer representation. On the basis of presented experiences of the accession countries (Hungary, Slovakia and Bulgaria) in their alignment to the EC consumer protection, this paper reminds of the initial lack of reliable tradition, but also points out at the significant results made in this sector in the future Member States of the European Union. The main rationale is that, like in most of the accession and candidate countries, the Law on consumer protection in Croatia represents only the starting point towards the achievement of the high standards of protection of consumer's health and safety.
