Regulation 5A Advertisements for dangerous preparationsF1

Subject to paragraph (2), a person who supplies a dangerous preparation shall not advertise that preparation, or arrange for the production of any such advertisement, unless mention is made in the advertisement of the type of hazard indicated on the label.

Paragraph (1) shall apply only in respect of a dangerous preparation where the advertisement enables a person, otherwise than in the course of a business, to conclude a contract to purchase the dangerous preparation before that person has seen the label relating to the dangerous preparation.

In this regulation “supply” has the same meaning as it has in section 46 of the Consumer Protection Act 1987.

This regulation has effect until 31st May 2017.
