Background

Call for tampons to be subject to product-specific safety regulations while retaining VAT-free status. These safety regulations should require ingredient labelling, rigorous safety testing, and post-market monitoring.

Additional details

We believe introducing product-specific regulations could help ensure robust safety testing, transparent labelling, and ongoing monitoring protecting public health and enabling informed consumer choices about products used in the body.
