Reading around I see references to a new regulation covering FSDs for
cookers, hobs, and such, that is apparently due to come into force in
May 2010. Can anyone tell me what this new regulation is please?

I ask because I am about to buy a new hob that doesn't have FSDs and
it may not get fitted until after this May deadline, so I'm not sure
whether to get it or not. BTW I'm in a house, not a flat or the like.
