REPORT TO


THE CONGRESS


BY THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL

OF THE UNITED STATES


The Consumer Product Safety

Commission Needs To Issue

Safety Standards Faster



The Consumer Product Safety Commission
develops and issues safety standards to pro-
tect consumers from hazardous products.
However, as of June 30, 1977, and since it
began in May 1973, the Commission had
issued only three safety standards under the
Consumer Product Safety Act.

The Commission has not promptly issued
standards, because of inadequate information
about injuries from products, peor guidance
to the Commission's staff and those who de-
velop standards, and lack of a priority-setting
mechanism.
