Alison Newstead and Marisa Pearce now provide their analysis on the main focus of the Consultation— whether the suite of current UK legislation governing product safety is fit for purpose in a dynamic, complex and increasingly technologically advanced product marketplace. The UK government has made a call for evidence in a March 2021 Consultation on the effectiveness of the UK’s existing product safety regime, with a view to ensuring that it is fit for purpose both now and throughout the 21st century.
