ECHA publishes data-sharing dispute decisions
ECHA has published all 27 data sharing dispute decisions which have been issued under REACH and the BPR to date. This is part of the Agency's commitment to transparency and serves to give industry, decision-makers and the interested public a better understanding of its reasoning in these cases. It is also thought that it will help to guide SMEs that find themselves in data sharing negotiations in the run-up to the 2018 registration deadline.

Final reminder for PIC exporters
PIC exporters need to take action now, to make sure that their data (export notifications, special Reference Identification Number (RIN) requests and details on mixtures and articles) is migrated from EDEXIM to the new submission system, ePIC. The "ownership" of the data must be digitally assigned to each company using a unique identifier that is recognised by both systems. This Legal Entity Universal Unique Identifier (LE UUID) can be obtained from REACH-IT. Please log into EDEXIM, where you will find detailed instructions, and provide your LE UUID no later than 22 August 2014. If the deadline is missed, the data cannot be migrated.
