Over 180,000 unsafe products were withdrawn or recalled from the Irish market arising under the watch of the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission (CCPC) last year.

Over 180,000 unsafe products were withdrawn or recalled from the Irish market arising under the watch of the Competition and Consumer Protection Commission last year.

The report documents how the CCPC carried out 2,214 consumer protection and product safety inspections in 2023 and the compliance inspections in 2023 covered unannounced visits to business and retail premises, online sweeps and inspections with Customs. This arose from the CCPC receiving a complaint alleging possible anti-competitive conduct by Atlantic Technological University Donegal regarding communications from ATU Donegal to students that they should source graduation gowns from only one supplier.In the report, chairperson, Brian McHugh stated in 20223"we removed more than 180,000 unsafe products from the Irish market, including travel adaptors, hurling helmets, water beads and toys with chemicals".

Mr McHugh stated:"We know that 66% of Irish consumers who follow influencers reported buying a product as a result of an influencer mentioning it."
