CPSIA - Imagine the Fun, the Commission to Discuss the "15 Month Rule" Tomorrow

The CPSC Commission will be discussing the following matters tomorrow at 9 AM EST:

1. Testing and Labeling to Product Certification - Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPR) and Testing Component Parts - Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPR)
2. CPSA 15(j) Rule for Drawstrings - Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPR)
3. CPSA 15(j) Rule for Hairdryers - Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPR)
4. Infant Bath Seats - Final Rule - and Laboratory Accreditation

Please NOTE that the Testing and Labeling rules (the "15 Month Rule" announced on April 1) has been converted into a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking to expedite its completion. Other than their desire to move on to something more interesting to do, why do you suppose the Commission is so hot-to-trot to get this rulemaking behind them?

Could it be that they REALLY want to lift the testing stay on February 10, 2011, as PROMISED? Hmmm.
