This text analyzes the emergence of European Community product safety regulation, which is explained as a reaction both to spill-over effects of the internal market policy, and to growing societal concerns regarding health and safety regulation. Due to factors such as mutual distrust between the Member States, the post-Maastricht Community is increasingly required to play a direct role in health and safety regulation. This has confronted the Community with regulatory problems relating to the assessment and management of risks.
