General Product Safety Directive

The Commission-Directorate dealing with consumer affairs has recently circulated further revised proposals to reform the General Product Safety Directive.

Christopher Hodges, who is a partner at CMS Cameron McKenna and a member of the CBI's Working Party dealing with this, recently attended a meeting with the Commission as one of the three representatives of UNICE, the European Confederation of Industry Associations and has written a detailed article on the proposals. This can be accessed by clicking on "Your latest information" in the LawNow section of our website. The article is called: "Status of the Debate on Amendments to the General Product Safety Directive".
