    Section 14(a) of the Consumer Product Safety Act (CPSA), 15 U.S.C. 
2063(a), requires every manufacturer, private labeler, or importer of a 
product that is subject to a consumer product safety standard and that 
is distributed in commerce to issue a certificate that such product 
conforms to the applicable standard and to base that certificate upon a 
test of each item or upon a reasonable testing program. The purpose of 
this subpart B of part 1212 is to establish requirements that 
manufacturers, importers, and private labelers must follow to certify 
that their products comply with the Safety Standard for Multi-purpose 
lighters. This Subpart B describes the minimum features of a reasonable 
testing program and includes requirements for labeling, recordkeeping, 
and reporting pursuant to sections 14, 16(b), 17(g), and 27(e) of the 
CPSA, 15 U.S.C. 2063, 2065(b), 2066(g), and 2076(e).
