Toy safety

At a Glance 06-03-2024

On 28 July 2023, the European Commission adopted a proposal to revise EU toy safety legislation. It has two main objectives: achieving a higher level of child protection, and reducing the number of non-compliant and unsafe toys on the EU market. The European Parliament's Committee on the Internal Market and Consumer Protection (IMCO) adopted its report on the proposal unanimously in February 2024. The report is scheduled for a plenary vote in March, which would set Parliament's first-reading position.
