1. Review laws on non-lethal self-defence products and their classification.
2. Approve products that meet safety and effectiveness standards.
3. License sales so approved items are available only through accredited suppliers with safety information.

A regulated system would protect the public while allowing adults safe, legal options for personal defence.
