of toys”, the secretariat of which is held by DS.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of

0 Introduction
0.1 Interpretations and no-action decisions
This Technical Report contains replies to requests for interpretations concerning the understanding of
clauses in the chemical standards in the EN 71 series:
— EN 71-3: Migration of certain elements;
— EN 71-4: Experimental sets for chemistry and related activities;
— EN 71-5: Chemical toys (sets) other than experimental sets;
— EN 71-7: Finger paints — Requirements and test methods;
— EN 71-9: Organic chemical compounds — Requirements;
— EN 71-10: Organic chemical compounds — Sample preparation and extraction;
— EN 71-11: Organic chemical compounds — Methods of analysis;
— EN 71-12: N-Nitrosamines and N-Nitrosatable substances;
— EN 71-13: Olfactory board games, cosmetic kits and gustative games.
The replies concern those requests that have resulted in an interpretation or a decision that no action is
required as the standard is sufficiently clear.
An interpretation does not have the same status as the text of the standard, nor can it overrule the text
of the standard. However, following an interpretation should give assurance that the relevant clause of
the standard has been correctly applied. An interpretation should only be regarded as a clarification of
the meaning of the standard such that stakeholders can apply it correctly in a conformity assessment.
An interpretation is not an assessment of the requirement in the standard - it is only a strict
interpretation of the meaning of the text.
Disclaimer:
The interpretations have been derived by expert groups of CEN/TC 52. The information contained
herein is for guidance only and does not reflect the formal approval by CEN or CEN member bodies. It
should be noted that the interpretations are neither part of any standard nor have been referenced in
the Official Journal of the European Union.
0.2 Requests for interpretation
Requests for interpretations may be submitted by a CEN member body through its national committee
or by a CEN/TC 52 liaison (but not directly by an individual or a company) - in accordance with the
interpretation protocols agreed by CEN/TC 52. The requests are then channelled to the relevant
CEN/TC 52 working party, which will then deal with the request.
A request for an interpretation may lead to:
a) An interpretation of the standard:
This should reflect a reasonable interpretation of how the standard should be used, taking into
account:
1) the wording of the standard;
