[Published in Gazette No. 162 of 2 December 1994]

HIS Excellency the Governor, with the advice of the Executive Council, and in pursuance of the Fair Trading Act 1987, has been pleased to make the Regulation set forth hereunder.

Wendy Machin MP

Minister for Consumer Affairs.

EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Regulation repeals the provisions of the Product Safety Regulation 1988 that deal with safety footwear. Regulations made under other Acts (such as the Construction Safety Act 1912 and the Factories, Shops and Industries Act 1962) regulate the footwear that is to be worn in certain situations where footwear could affect safety.

This Regulation is made under sections 26 and 92 of the Fair Trading Act 1987.
