Dossier evaluation is conducted by authorities to examine proposals for testing to ensure that unnecessary animal tests and costs are avoided, and to check the compliance of registration dossier with the registration requirements. Chemical companies failed to provide "important safety information" in nearly three quarters (74% or 211 of 286) of ...
In 2018, the first "registration" phase of REACH had ended, with over 21,500 chemicals being added to the ECHA database. However, the quality of the information held for those chemicals produced at more than 1000 tonnes per annum was in doubt, with only one third meeting legal requirements. [8] The industry group CEFIC acknowledged the problem. [9]
The CLP Regulation [1] (for "Classification, Labelling and Packaging" [2]) is a European Union regulation from 2008, which aligns the European Union system of classification, labelling and packaging of chemical substances and mixtures to the Globally Harmonised System (GHS). It is expected to facilitate global trade and the harmonised ...
The addition of a substance to the SVHC Candidate List [2] by the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) is the first step in the procedure for the authorisation or restriction of a chemical. [3] It is expected that industries operating in EU member states abide by the regulations of REACH and submit chemicals for consideration when appropriate. [4]
A company preparing, modifying, or repackaging a mixture (downstream user, „manufacturer“ of mixture) submits the chemical composition with toxicological information, as well as additional information such as product trade name, packaging and colour, via the ECHA to member states‘ appointed bodies (e.g. poison control centers).
The authorisation procedure is one of the regulatory tools of the European regulation (EC) REACH n°1907/2006 aiming to ban the use of substances of very high concern included in the Annex XIV of REACH, so as to replace them with technically and economically feasible alternatives.
Chemical Safety Reports are the main end point for data assessment under REACH (the European Community Regulation on chemicals and their safe use, concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemical substances [4]) in which hazard and exposure data are considered together to assess the risk of a substance. [5]
The regulation of chemicals is the legislative intent of a variety of national laws or international initiatives such as agreements, strategies or conventions.These international initiatives define the policy of further regulations to be implemented locally as well as exposure or emission limits.
