answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 20/11/2017 answer text <p>The Government takes the safety of fireworks very seriously. Regulations are currently in place which control the sale of fireworks to both consumers and professional display operators. Experience has shown that the current regulations strike the right balance between the enjoyment of fireworks by the public and restricting the sale and use of fireworks for public safety reasons.</p><p> </p><p>Certain dangerous items are already banned for sale in the UK. These include bangers and jumping jacks, among others. Such items are prohibited regardless of whether they are approved for sale in other EU countries. This removes from sale higher risk fireworks which could lead to injury.</p><p> </p><p>We will continue to focus on reducing accidents and nuisance by encouraging industry, retailers and others to promote the responsible sale and use of fireworks through guidance and public education.</p> answering member constituency Stourbridge answering member printed Margot James question first answered 20/11/2017 15:28:04 answering member 4115 label Biography information for Margot James
