Question to the Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy:
To ask Her Majesty's Government what, if any, consideration is being given to registration of white electrical goods at the point of sale.
The Office for Product Safety and Standards (OPSS) is conducting extensive research with 4,000 consumers to understand their attitudes to product registration and trial different approaches. Officials are developing proposals to increase registration, including assessing the merits of mandatory registration for electrical products as part of this work.
