TITLE: FMVSS INTERPRETATION

TEXT: Thank you for your letter of February 2, 1973, to Mr. Medlin of my staff, informing us of an infant car hammock made by(Illegible Word) Lamb.

Since the present child restraint standards do not cover infant restraints, we are limited in the action we can take on such a device. The Notice of Proposed Rule Making on the Child Restraint Systems Standard will be issued in the near future. This will inform all such manufacturers and the public of the new requirements for devices used to position or restrain an infant in a motor vehicle. We feel that this is the most appropriate action in this specific situation due to the limited market(Illegible Word) and availability of this device.

We appreciate your forwarding us this information and your continued support of child restraint safety.
