The problem
The stick-on tattoo does not meet the Product Safety Standard AS/NZS ISO 8124 Part 3:2003 for children's toys. Testing has shown the product contains lead marginally above the permissible limit and, although the risk is very low, could be harmful if ingested.

Details
A temporary stick-on tattoo supplied as a free gift with the purchase of Jockey boys singlets and trunks. Garments sold through Farmers stores nationwide. Stick-on tattoos distributed from 1 July 2011 to 29 July 2011.

What to do
Dispose of the stick-on tattoo immediately. The garments are safe to wear and meet the relevant New Zealand safety standards. For more information call 0800 800 390.
