The Unsolicited Electronic Messages Act 2007 ("Spam Act") will come into force on 5 September this year. This legislation represents New Zealand's contribution to a global movement towards preventing spam, bringing us into line with other jurisdictions such as the UK and Australia. While this may be seen as a positive step, the Spam Act does impose various requirements on senders of commercial electronic messages that are likely to have a significant impact on many business organisations. Businesses will need to implement changes and systems prior to 5 September 2007 to ensure that they are compliant when the Spam Act comes into force.
