Division Choking hazards

United Kingdom

Original text. Later amendments are not shown.

To prevent choking hazards, chair-mounted seats must not contain any small parts, whether intended to be removed without a tool or not, that could become detached by forces that a child can apply and are small enough to fit entirely in a child’s mouth.

Stuffing materials that constitute choking hazards must not become accessible when submitted to the forces that a child can apply. They must not constitute an additional choking hazard due to the size of the elements they contain or because these elements become sufficiently small or accessible when submitted to the forces that a child can apply.
