Read the facts below, and then answer the questions.
A, a printer, appoints B to represent him in soliciting orders for printed products. B visits local businesspersons, explains what sort of things A can produce, and quotes prices. B quickly finds out that potential customers are discouraged from ordering products if he tells them that most of the printing is done offshore, so he stops disclosing this fact and begins describing A's business as "100% Australian". A competitor finds out about this and brings an action against A and B, alleging a breach of s 18 of the Australian Consumer Law.
