In order to protect children from toys that negatively affect their mental health, the Board of the Eurasian Economic Commission adopted the Recommendation “On the protection of children and adolescents from information harmful to their health and development.”
The Republic of Armenia, the Republic of Belarus and the Kyrgyz Republic are recommended to consider the possibility of implementing into their legislation the model law on the protection of children from information harmful to their health and development, adopted at the 33rd plenary meeting of the Interparliamentary Assembly of Member States of the Commonwealth of Independent States (resolution dated December 3 2009 No. 33-15), taking into account the characteristics of socio-economic development and legal regulation in countries.
The states of the Eurasian Economic Union are recommended to consider the feasibility of applying the concept of “information products” in relation to board games, as well as other products intended for children and adolescents that may contain images that are harmful to their health and development (for example, clothing, briefcases, backpacks, bicycles , school writing supplies).
Taking into account the discussion that took place, it was considered advisable to continue, in the prescribed manner, work on preparing amendments to the technical regulations of the Customs Union “On the safety of toys”, providing for the possibility of establishing minimum requirements for toys in terms of protecting children from their negative influence.
