An Irish court has ruled that "EU law relating to safety of utensils designed for use by children does not include sugar dispensers." It follows a case for compensation brought by the mother of a then 2 year-old girl who got her finger stuck in an 8mm hole on a metal lid that later had to be cut off.
During the course of the hearing, evidence was heard from engineers representing both the defendant and the plaintiff. The judge described it as a case of 'compensation culture gone mad'.
Finger case is 'compensation culture gone mad', says judge - Independent.ie:
