Product & Consumer Protection Life Sciences

In the six months since the publication of our 2024 Annual Review, there have been several significant developments in the EU products and consumer protection law space. We review some of the key developments during the year and look ahead to future reform for the remainder of 2025.

In this Review, we will consider a number of key issues including:

  • An important recent decision of the CJEU interpreting what constitutes a ‘producer’ under the EU Product Liability Directive
  • An examination of the obligations for importers, distributors and manufacturers under the EU’s new Packaging Regulation
  • An assessment of the EU’s now-shelved AI Liability Directive and where things go from here
  • The first Representative Action before the Irish Courts

We discuss these issues and much more, and hope you enjoy this latest edition of our Product & Consumer Protection Mid-year Review for 2025.
