accidents, injuries, illnesses, other
health impairments, and economic
losses associated with consumer
products. Section 5(b) of the CPSA, 15
U.S.C. 2054(b), further provides that the
Commission may conduct research,
studies and investigations on the safety
of consumer products or test consumer
products and develop product safety
test methods and testing devices.
To help identify and evaluate
product-related incidents, Commission
staff invites and obtains direct feedback
from consumers on issues related to
product safety, such as recall
effectiveness, product use, and
perceptions regarding safety issues. The
information that the CPSC collects from
future focus groups will help inform the
Commission’s identification and
evaluation of consumer products and
product use, by providing insight and
information into consumer perceptions
and usage patterns. In some cases, oneon-one interviews may be conducted as
a more in-depth extension of a focus
group or in place of a traditional focus
group. This information may also assist
the Commission in its efforts to support
voluntary standards activities and help
CPSC identify consumer safety issues
requiring additional research. In
addition, based on the information
obtained, CPSC may be able to provide
safety information to the public that is
easier to read and understood by a
wider range of consumers.
B. Request for Comments
The Commission solicits written
comments from all interested persons
about the proposed collection of
information. The Commission
specifically solicits information relevant
to the following topics:
• Whether the collection of
information described above is
necessary for the proper performance of
the Commission’s functions, including
whether the information would have
practical utility;
• Whether the estimated burden of
the proposed collection of information
is accurate;
• Whether the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be collected
could be enhanced; and
• Whether the burden imposed by the
collection of information could be
minimized by use of automated,
electronic or other technological
collection techniques, or other forms of
information technology.
