澳大利亚竞争与消费者委员会(ACCC)最近发现速卖通网站的一些供应商可能正在向澳大利亚消费者出售不符合澳大利亚产品安全法的学步车。在澳大利亚销售或向在澳大利亚的消费者销售不符合相关强制性标准的婴儿学步车是违法的。
强制性标准所适用的婴儿学步车范围：由轮子和轮子上的框架组成的，用于帮助还没有学会走路的小孩在框架内通过脚触地来推进移动的学步车。
婴幼儿学步车强制性标准中的一些关键的安全措施可以避免儿童因摔伤而严重受伤。这些安全措施包括各种安全标志、安全设计、制造要求和性能要求。所有的强制性标准都在消费者保障通告里详细列出。
婴儿及幼儿用品(包括学步车)适用的主要强制性规定都在《婴儿及幼儿用品简报》中可以找到，并且有多种语言的版本方便阅读。
供应商应该采取什么行动?
所有婴儿学步车的卖家应该检查您的产品是否符合相关的强制性标准。如果您的任何产品不符合规定，您应将其从全球速卖通网站上删除或促使其不售往澳大利亚。同时，针对已卖出的相关产品您应该考虑召回，如有关产品没被召回将会导致强制性召回、法律诉讼和高额罚款。
供应商在哪里可以找到更多的产品安全信息?
澳大利亚产品安全网站中有关于澳大利亚产品安全系统的详细信息(www.productsafety.gov.au)。此外，ACCC针对线上卖家还制定了专门的规定。请利用网站信息来确认您的产品符合产品安全法。您也可以通过订阅来及时获取最新的ACCC的产品安全更新。

Baby walkers – information for AliExpress to disseminate to suppliers
The Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) has checked AliExpress’s website and believes that some suppliers may be selling baby walkers to Australian consumers that do not meet Australia’s product safety laws.
It is illegal to supply baby walkers in Australia or to people in Australia unless they comply with the relevant mandatory standard.
The mandatory standard covers baby walkers that comprise of a frame on wheels. Baby walkers are designed to support, inside the frame, a child with its feet touching the ground and who has not yet learned to walk and is propelled by the movement of a child.
The mandatory standard for baby walkers includes key safety features to avoid children being seriously injured through fall injuries. This includes various safety markings, plus design, construction and performance requirements. The Consumer Protection Notice sets out the full requirements of the mandatory standard.
Key mandatory requirements for baby and nursery products including baby walkers are listed in the Baby and nursery products fact sheet, which is available in various languages.
What action should suppliers take?
You have been identified as a potential seller of baby walkers. You should check that your product complies with the relevant mandatory standard. If any of your products do not comply, you should remove them from the AliExpress website or change the listing so that it can no longer be supplied to Australia. You should also consider initiating a recall. Failure to do so may result in compulsory recalls, legal action and/or significant penalties.
Where can suppliers find further product safety information?
The Product Safety Australia website contains detailed information about Australia's product safety system (www.productsafety.gov.au). There is also a dedicated resource, which the ACCC has developed for online sellers. Please use the resources available there to confirm that your product meets product safety laws. You can also subscribe on the website to receive product safety updates from the ACCC.
