Hearing on Revision of the Toys Directive
23 June 2008
Brussels
The Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection of the European Parliament is holding a hearing on Monday 23rd June on toy safety.
EPP-ED Vice-Chairwoman Marianne Thyssen MEP (Belgium) is rapporteur of Parliament's report on the toys directive. Industry representatives, regulators, and consumer interest groups participated in the hearing, which examined the revision from both the industry and consumer point of view, as well as enforcement issues. Mrs Thyssen has said that consumer protection tops the political agenda of the EPP-ED Group, and that recent problems on the toy market show that despite existing consumer protection legislation, the need still exists to revise the Toys Directive.
