Under section 4 of the Act the notices (a) and (c) must be accompanied by the notices (b) and (d) respectively.\nIt is a criminal offence for an offeror to enter into a timeshare agreement unless the offeree has received notices (a) and (b) in accordance with the requirements above.\nNotices (c) and (d) should also be given, in accordance with the requirements above, to the offeree before a timeshare credit agreement is entered into, (although entering into such an agreement when the offeree has not received them does not constitute a criminal offence).\nNotices (a) and (c) give information about the offeree’s rights to cancel a timeshare agreement or a timeshare credit agreement at any time before or on a day specified in the notice. This must be a day which falls not less than fourteen days after the agreement is entered into. These notices also spell out the rights and obligations of the offeree should he choose to exercise the right to cancel.\nNotices (b) and (d) may be used by the offeree to cancel the agreement.",
