Garuda Lavatories

Recently been on a Garuda flight and the pre-flight safety announcement states that "following International civil aviation regulations, oxygen tanks are removed from the lavatory, passengers are to go to the nearest available seats in case of depressurization"

it puzzles be as this would be the first time I have heard of such International aviation regulations... reached home and googled... found out there was a time FAA mandated such a removal but have since reversed on this decision...

does anyone know if this is a "veiled" attempt to save costs of there are other considerations for Garuda to follow this so-called "regulations"
