CPSC Warns Children's Products Manufacturers

Inez Tenenbaum, chairman for the US Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) issued a strong warning to children's products manufacturers advising them that they need to make safety a number one priority or face consequences. She stated, "If you resist our efforts to recall children's products, be forewarned: This commission stands ready to be creative in the use of our enforcement authorities."

According to the Kansas City Star, it was her strongest warning since taking over as chairman. She went on to say that the CPSC was given new powers in 2008, "and we are not afraid to use them." Congress had recently questioned delays in public awareness involving recalls including the 6 month delay in recalling over 2 million Stork Craft drop-side cribs. A defect in the crib could cause the drop-side to become detached creating a space between the drop-side and the mattress causing suffocation, which has been linked to four infant deaths.
 

Tenenbaum promised to impose new crib safety rules, which she hopes to accomplish by the end of 2010. The crib safety guidelines have not been amended in more than 25 years.
