The government is currently seeking feedback on ways the Unclaimed Goods Act 1987 could be improved and updated.
Goods can be ‘unclaimed’ when they are left with a business for repair or other service, are left with others to look after, in buying or selling, or when they are abandoned on private premises.
About the review
