Christel Schaldemose calls on consumers to buy Danish or european, until the new directive is in place.
It is not safe to buy the toys or other goods in the foreign online stores – at least not if you want to be deleted endocrine disrupters or other chemicals, which the environmental protection Agency considers dangerous.
And it is well and the brand is not inconsistent with the legislation.
It accepts the EU-parliamentarian Christel Schaldemose (S), after that the DR has brought a story about the public’s chemistry of the toys from the netbutikkerne Amazon, eBay and Wish.
For even if the three shops have promised the environmental protection Agency to stop the sale of toys with, among others, endocrine disrupting substances, could the DR still buy it. And it is difficult to find legislation to come after netbutikkerne.
the european UNION has actually a directive for internet shopping. But until it is reviewed and changed, is there nothing here, as the Danish authorities can use to come after the foreign online shops.
Therefore, Christel Schaldemose, not that it makes sense to stick consumers the wool Favoribahis over the eyes.
– We act very much on the web. We have simply not made sure that the legislation is followed, then one can be confident about the online shopping, says Christel Schaldemose.
– It seems to me, is really annoying. But you can’t be comfortable.
the Problem is that the foreign online shops often occupies the role as a platform or marketplace. Here, they sell so products from other stores around the world.
And even if the shops adhere to their country’s own requirements, comply with they are not necessarily Danish or EU requirements.
From the Danish business community’s side if you want, to the foreign online shops can be held responsible for the goods sold through the platform. It can happen, if the EU decides it in a new e-handelsdirektiv.
The desire to share Christel Schaldemose, but she warns against just to sit on hands and wait for a new directive.
– We must ensure that consumers through legislation. It comes enough to take at least four to five years before we can be ready with a law that so works, she says.
– Until then, you as a consumer be aware of where you purchase your goods at.
– If you buy them in Denmark or from Europe, you can be more secure than if you buy it outside of Europe.
She also calls on his party colleagues in the Danish government to increase the national control of products coming into the country from non-EU countries.
