“This article considers why only five cartel class actions have been brought in Australia, and critically analyses the suggestion that the reason for the lack of cases is due to the significant hurdles which plaintiffs face in bringing a claim. The article concludes with the view that the apparent barriers for successfully pursuing cartel class action are not overly complex, and certainly not insurmountable.“
