Default linear power supplies "outlawed"?

Hello,

I was looking for a PSU to power a child's toy but found that the CPC
web site says "not for domestic use" against all their linear power
supplies because they do not comply with energy saving regulations.
What's this about and when did that start? Are we supposed to use SMPS
for everything now? If so, why are they still selling linear power
supplies; there must be an advantage?

Thanks,
Stephen.
