9、 hazards (see A.3), as it is a legal requirement in the UK for mattresses supplied for domestic use in the UK to comply with the Furniture and Furnishings (Fire) (Safety) Regulations 1988, No. 1324 and amendment 1989 No. 2358 and amendment 2010 No.2205. Filling materials of cot mattresses fall under
10、 the scope of these regulations. The materials shall comply with schedules 1 and 2 of Statutory Instrument 1988 No.1324, as amended. Failure to comply can result in prosecution.The UK participation in its preparation was entrusted to Technical Committee FW/0/2, Domestic and Contract Furniture.A list
