Recital 19
Recital 19
(19) Since toys may exist or be developed which present hazards which are not covered by a particular safety requirement laid down in this Directive, it is necessary to set a general requirement of safety as the legal base for taking action against such toys. In this respect safety of toys should be determined by reference to the intended use of the product while taking into account the foreseeable use, bearing in mind behaviour of children, who do not generally show the same degree of care as the average adult user. If scientific evidence does not allow this risk assessment, Member States, in particular through their competent authorities, should apply the precautionary principle.
