Description

Notice of proposed rulemaking - The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (Commission or 
CPSC) proposes to address the risk of injury and death associated with 
children ingesting button cell or coin cell batteries obtained from 
toys by adding performance and labeling requirements for battery-
operated toys containing such batteries. The proposed requirements 
would provide the highest level of safety feasible, and are consistent 
with the Commission's recent Reese's Law rulemaking and international 
standards for electronic toys. The Commission also proposes to amend 
CPSC's list of notice of requirements (NORs) to include toys containing 
button cell or coin cell batteries.
