Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:

To ask the Secretary of State for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy, whether his Department plans to introduce a labelling system for toys that have flashing lights and make loud noises to better support children who are prone to sensory overload and sensitivity.

There are no plans to specifically require toy packaging to provide information relating to sensory overload or sensitivity. However, it remains that the safety and labelling requirements of the UK Toys (Safety) Regulations 2011 require manufacturers to provide general information to help consumers identify which toys are most suitable for their particular needs as well as requiring information be provided on the safe use of the toy.
