BILL NUMBER:S774 REVISED 5/6/13 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the general business law, in relation to prohibiting the sale of unsafe cribs and restricting the use of such cribs in certain settings PURPOSE: The purpose of this bill is to protect infants from potential hazards associated with the use of cribs that do not meet applicable safety standards. SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS: This bill would conform New York's crib safety law with recently enacted federal rules regarding the sale and use of cribs. Specifically, the bill would prohibit, on or after December 28, 2013, the use of an unsafe crib by any child care facility or place of public accommodation and require the Office of Children and Family Services to notify child care facilities of such prohibition. The bill would also make technical and conforming changes. Chapter 245 of the Laws of 2010 prohibited the importation, manufacture or sale of any crib that does not meet safety standards established by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and ASTM International. In December 2010, the CPSC adopted new crib safety rules. In addition to enhancing crib design standards, these rules prohibit the use of non-compliant cribs in certain childcare facilities and places of public accommodation. This bill would conform New York's law to the federal rule.
