Feedback on robust study summaries in hazard assessment published
We have published a report collecting feedback from stakeholders on the role of robust study summaries in assessing chemical hazards. Registrants provide robust study summaries in their registrations to summarise the objectives, methods, results and conclusions of full study reports in order to demonstrate their substances are safe to use.
This report is part of an ongoing project, in collaboration with the OECD, that aims to assess the reliability of robust study summaries and increase trust in their use. A final report with recommendations for improvement will be published in 2023.

A new version of REACH-IT released
Changes to Annex VI to REACH have brought a new requirement for only representatives to provide information on the non-EU manufacturers they represent.
When you log into REACH-IT, you will be asked to declare whether or not your company acts as an only representative. Only representatives will be asked to identify their non-EU manufacturers.
If the REACH-IT account is not used for only representative purposes, no further actions are required.
Other changes to REACH-IT include:
-
a step where the system calculates and warns the user of the registrations and C&L notifications that would be annulled in a legal entity change; and
-
from 5 May 2022, registrants will be able to export a report of all registrations.
