Consumer Safety


Book Description

The growing volume of consumer products imported into the U.S. has strained the resources of the Consumer Product Safety Comm. (CPSC), challenging the agency to find new ways to ensure the safety of these products. The Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act required this report to assess the effectiveness of CPSC¿s authorities over imported products. The objectives were to: (1) determine what is known about CPSC¿s effectiveness in using these authorities; (2) compare CPSC¿s authorities with those of selected U.S. agencies and international entities; and (3) evaluate CPSC¿s plans to prevent the entry of unsafe consumer products. Includes recommendations. Charts and tables.
