Support to the possible introduction of additional information requirements on uses and exposure in REACH (ENV.B.2./FRAU/2020/0010)
Information on uses and exposures is one of the main building blocks of the approach under REACH. Use and exposure data are used for many of the processes under REACH, including the Assessment of Regulatory Needs (ARN), restrictions, and monitoring of regulatory impact of REACH interventions (and the chemicals legislation at large).
Shortcomings in the currently available use and exposure data generated through REACH registration have been identified and there is a need to consider ways of improving the situation.
For this reason, RPA Europe, Oekopol, FoBiG and RPA were commissioned to carry out a study to assist the European Commission in determining how best to revise REACH registration requirements and the associated downstream user (DU) obligations to provide information on uses and exposures.
