<p>The UK has one of the highest sets of product safety requirements in the EU which
requires goods to meet strict safety rules before they are put into use.</p><p>The
Working Group on Product Recalls and Safety submitted its final report in April 2017.
I had intended to publish the report then, but the announcement of the General Election
prevented me from doing so.</p><p>Following the Grenfell Tower fire tragedy, I asked
the Working Group to urgently review their findings and their report has been published
today.</p><p>I have also asked the Working Group to look at further potential areas
of product safety and recalls where action might be required, in light of the tragic
events at Grenfell Tower.</p>
