Consumer Federation of America and Kids In Danger Support CPSC Adopting Revision to Toy Safety Standard
Consumer Federation of America and Kids In Danger submitted joint comments to the CPSC in support of the revisions to the toy safety standard. The changes reflect the most current revisions to the voluntary standard and include critical safety changes to battery compartments, such as requiring a tool to open battery compartments and requiring that any fasteners - like screws - remain attached to the compartment or product to avoid choking hazard. However, the organizations strongly urge the ASTM Toy Safety Subcommittee and CPSC continue to work to address emerging hazards.
