A significant number of notifications related to toys and to chemical risks has been revealed with today’s release of the 2012 RAPEX Annual Report. Despite the efforts of market surveillance authorities, this increase again shows that children in the EU are not receiving the protection they deserve. ANEC repeats its call to policy makers to strengthen chemical requirements for toys and adopt a coherent horizontal approach to chemicals in products.
