risk in youth.

Commission's jurisdiction;
(2) if protective equipment manufacturers choose to adopt
voluntary consumer product safety standards, the voluntary
standards should include mechanisms to ensure substantial
compliance by covered entities; and

Academies' report and future research in this area, including
research as recommended by the National Academies, for any
matter that may inform efforts to protect consumers from unfair
or deceptive practices in or affecting commerce.
