Recall Summary – European Toys (Dec 2017)

RAPEX – Rapid Exchange of information system 

The Rapid Alert System enables the rapid exchange of information (RAPEX) between 31 European countries and the European Commission on non- food dangerous products found on the market posing a risk to health and safety of consumers. 

A weekly overview of the alerts on those products is published in English for free on http://ec.europa.eu/rapex. The measures taken in the notifying country in order to restrict their marketing or use can be ordered by national authorities ("compulsory measures") or be taken directly by producers and distributors ("voluntary measures"). 

The official contact points of the Member and EFTA-EEA States provide the information published in these weekly overviews. Under the terms of Annex II.10 of the General Product Safety Directive (2001/95/EC) responsibility for the information provided lies with the notifying party. The Commission does not take any responsibility for the accuracy of the information provided.
