Title: Standard for Booster Seats | |
Abstract:
Section 104 of the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA) requires the Commission to issue consumer product safety standards for durable infant or toddler products. The Commission is directed to assess the effectiveness of applicable voluntary standards, and in accordance with the Administrative Procedure Act, promulgate consumer product safety standards that are substantially the same as the voluntary standard or more stringent than the voluntary standard if the Commission determines that more stringent standards would further reduce the risk of injury associated with the product. The CPSIA requires that no later than August 14, 2009, the Commission begin rulemaking for at least two categories of durable infant or toddler products and promulgate two such standards every six months thereafter. The Commission proposed a consumer product safety standard for booster seats as part of this series of standards for durable infant and toddler products that was published in the Federal Register on May 19, 2017. The comment period closed on August 2, 2017. Staff is preparing a Final Rule briefing package for Commission consideration in FY 2018. |
