New manual on publishing information about biocides
ECHA's new manual explains the basic rules applied when publishing information on approved active substances and authorised biocidal products on our website: Which information from the IUCLID 5 dossier will and will not be made public? Which information can be claimed confidential? The manual is helpful in particular for companies' managers and technical experts responsible for making sure that the dossiers include comprehensive information.
