CONSUMER PROTECTION

These Regulations prohibit, subject to exceptions, the supply of certain dangerous substances and preparations. They revoke the Dangerous Substances and Preparations (Safety) (Consolidation) Regulations 1994 (S.I. 1994/2844) and the six amending Regulations listed in Schedule 1. They consolidate those Regulations with the amendments necessary to implement three further Directives. These Regulations implement Council Directive 76/769/EEC of 27 July 1976 on the approximation of the laws, regulations and administrative provisions of the Member States relating to restrictions on the marketing and use of certain dangerous substances and preparations (O.J. L.262, 27.9.1976, p.201) as last amended by Directive 2005/90/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 18 January 2006 (OJ L.33, 4.2.2006, p.28) so far as the amended directive concerns substances and preparations prohibited for supply to consumers.
