The Commerce & Economic Development Bureau is seeking feedback on proposed amendments to safety standards stipulated in the Toys & Children's Products Safety Ordinance.

Apart from updating the standards, the Government proposes other amendments. They are:

* removing "baby nests" from the list of designated children's products under the ordinance as the only applicable safety standard for this product has been withdrawn by the relevant standards institute;

* adopting the most up-to-date standards and adding new ones for some children's products; and,

* improving the drafting of the ordinance to put it beyond doubt that a toy meeting any of the sets of toy standards is deemed to be safe for the purposes of the ordinance.
