Debate
Product Regulation and Metrology Bill [HL]Contribution
As it stands, for instance, it is suggested that the Bill would exclude products that are connected to the internet or where part of the product’s operation could be described as a service, such as an app that controls a smart doorbell. While I am aware that this is an enabling Bill and that the Minister may wish to keep the agility through secondary legislation to respond to an ever-changing marketplace, the Bill, through definition, should put down clear markers in its intent to safeguard consumers. I look forward to the Minister’s response.
