Right to Repair appoints its champion

Right to Repair South Africa NPC (R2RSA) has been advocating for the freedom of repair choice for vehicle owners over the last couple of years, and has appointed Kate Elliott as its chief executive officer.

Elliott comes to R2RSA as a seasoned expert on civil, commercial, competition, franchise and labour law, having spent the last nine years at Ashersons Attorneys, a boutique law firm in South Africa. She worked as an attorney and built up to senior associate prior to joining R2RSA.

Elliott has a BA and LLB from the University of Cape Town. She is well versed in the challenges facing small business owners and will be actively assisting aftermarket businesses and consumers as the long-awaited Competition Commission Guidelines roll out, as will be integrally involved in any dispute resolution.
