Criteria for accepting international product safety standards and risk assessments

The ACCC is consulting on criteria for accepting international product safety standards and risk assessments. The consultation paper (below) identifies the three draft criteria the ACCC will use when developing and reviewing product safety standards and bans.

The adoption of international standards and risk assessments supports the Government's overall objective to reduce the regulatory burden on business, community organisations, families and individuals.
