ECHA to check justifications for opt-outs
From 1 December, ECHA will manually check that all new registrations where the registrant has chosen to opt out of the data submitted jointly by co-registrants include a proper justification as required by REACH. To help make sure that your justification is complete, use the templates in the latest version of IUCLID 6 and run the Validation Assistant on your data before submitting your dossier.
If you want to submit all of your data on your own or you do not agree with the lead registrant on access to the joint submission, and your request is justifiable, contact ECHA to get access to the joint submission. Dossiers relying entirely on the registrant’s own data are prioritised for compliance check.
