These Regulations further amend the Medicines (Child Safety) Regulations 1975 which prohibit the sale or supply of certain aspirin or paracetamol other than in child resistant containers.
Regulation 2(2) provides that the standard to which containers covered by these Regulations must conform is now the British Standard EN 28317 (published in February 1993). Regulation 2(3) provides that it will be sufficient for containers to comply with the previous British Standard 6652 (published in 1985 and amended and republished in 1989) if a certificate of conformity with that Standard has been issued by the British Standards Institution (BSI), and makes special provision for containers which form part of a series.
The British Standards referred to in these Regulations may be obtained from any of the sales outlets operated by the BSI or by post from the BSI at Linford Wood, Milton Keynes MK14 6LE.
