SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : Section 
106(a) of the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA), mandated that ASTM F963–07e1, Standard Consumer Safety Specifications for Toy Safety, shall be considered a mandatory consumer product safety standard issued by the CPSC.
115 U.S.C. 2056b(a). After 
compliance with ASTMF963 became mandatory in 2009, there were revisions to the voluntary standard in 2008, 2011, 2016, and 2017. Currently, ASTM F963–17, with certain exceptions, is considered a consumer product safety standard issued by the Commission under section 9 of the Consumer Product Safety Act (CPSA). 16 CFR part 
1250. 
On October 23, 2023, ASTM notified 
CPSC of ASTM’s approval and 
publication of revisions to ASTM F963 in a revised standard, numbered ASTM F963–23, approved on August 1, 2023. Under section 106(g) of the CPSIA, if ASTM proposes revisions to ASTM F963, ASTM must notify the Commission. 15 U.S.C. 2056b(g). The revised standard shall be considered a consumer product safety standard issued by the CPSC under section 9 of the CPSA (15 U.S.C. 2058), effective 180 days after the date on which ASTM notifies the Commission of the revision, unless, within 90 days after receiving that notice, the Commission notifies ASTM that it has determined that the proposed revision does not improve the safety of toys. 15 U.S.C. 2056b(g). 
CPSC is assessing the revised 
voluntary standard to determine 
whether the revisions in ASTM F963–23 meet the requirements of CPSIA section 106(g). The Commission invites public comment on that question, to inform staff’s assessment and any subsequent Commission consideration of the revisions in ASTM F963–23.

in several ways. ASTM has provided on its website (at https://www.astm.org/ CPSC.htm), at no cost, a read-only copy 
of the 2023 revisions to ASTM F963 including a red-lined version that identifies the changes made to ASTM F963–17.
