8、implementation of EN 7161:2017. It supersedes BS EN 7161:2008+A1:2013, which is withdrawn.Attention is drawn to the fact that the UK committee is of the opinion that the inclusion of a requirement for a movable side (dropside) to automatically lock when in its lowest position would increase the risk
9、 of injury and death to a child in the cot. This is because it is more likely a dropside with such a lock may be left in the lowered position during use of the item.The UK participation in its preparation was entrusted to Technical Committee CW/1, Safety of child use and child care products.A list o
