Evaluation of the consumer products activities / prepared by Evaluation Directorate, Health Canada and the Public Health Agency of Canada.: H14-500/2013E-PDF

"The purpose of this evaluation is to examine consumer products activities (CPA), with a particular (but not exclusive) focus on CPA under the Food and Consumer Safety Action Plan (FCSAP). FCSAP CPA are organized into three strategic “pillars”, active prevention to avoid product safety incidents; targeted oversight to improve product safety checks at various stages of the production process; and rapid response, which gives increased authority to government to take action when it identifies a risk related to consumer products. Broadly speaking, CPA within these three pillars include collaboration and communication with government, industry, and consumers; development of standards and regulations; conducting risk assessments of consumer products; and conducting surveillance and enforcement of consumer product regulations"--Executive summary, page ii.
