Slightly agree

No, as long as the costs are clearly communicated before purchases

Slightly disagree

No, businesses will raise prices if they are banned from using junk fees

While the Centre Party might be concerned about the potential for businesses to raise prices in response to regulation, their overall commitment to consumer protection and preventing deceptive pricing practices likely outweighs concerns about price increases. They would probably prefer a balanced approach that considers both consumer interests and the viability of businesses.
