As the Royal Canberra Show kicks off, Access Canberra Fair Trading compliance officers have checked more than 1,000 items in hundreds of showbags to ensure they meet safety requirements.
The checks help to minimise the risk of public harm by ensuring that products provided in the showbags meet the mandatory product safety requirements under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL), Mandatory Product Safety Standards and Product Bans.
