REGULATION (EU) 2023/988 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL of 10 May 2023 on general product safety, amending Regulation (EU) No 1025/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council and Directive (EU) 2020/1828 of the European Parliament and the Council, and repealing Directive 2001/95/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council and Council Directive 87/357/EEC (Text with EEA relevance) · European Union

(73) There might be cases where it is necessary to deal with a serious risk at Union level where the risk cannot be contained satisfactorily by means of measures taken by the Member State concerned or by any other procedure under Union law. This could in particular be the case as regards new emerging risks or those impacting vulnerable consumers. For that reason the Commission should be able to adopt measures either on its own initiative or upon request of the Member States. Such measures should be adapted to the gravity and urgency of the situation. It is furthermore necessary to provide for an adequate mechanism whereby the Commission could adopt immediately applicable interim measures.
