"The General Product Safety Directive (GPSD) was introduced in January 2004 to help protect consumers from unsafe products by harmonising and increasing the notification obligation and introducing mandatory recalls on companies in the supply chain that do not take appropriate steps to safeguard consumer safety.Since the introduction of the directive and up until the end of 2005, there have been 1,018 reported product recalls across the European Union (EU)."
