| SEC. 214. PROHIBITION ON SALE OF RECALLED PRODUCTS.
| Section 19(a) (as amended by section 210) (15 U.S.C. 2068(a)) is further
| amended--
| (1) by striking paragraph (1) and inserting the following:
| `(1) sell, offer for sale, manufacture for sale, distribute in commerce, or
| import into the United States any consumer product, or other product or
| substance that is regulated under any other Act enforced by the Commission,
| that is--
| `(A) not in conformity with an applicable consumer product safety standard
| under this Act, or any similar rule under any such other Act;

Does this apply all current consumer product safety standards to all
existing products or does the reference to "RECALLED" in the section
name limit "any such other Act" to those dealing specifically with
recalls? For example, does this prohibit selling an old lamp with
a non-polarized plug?

Your premise is false because items with non-polarized plugs have not
been recalled. Non-polarized plugs have been *replaced by* polarized
ones; not the same thing, so no ban on continued distribution of these
items would be called for.
