British Parliament Committee Aligns with Industry Survey on REACH Strategy
LONDON - Last month, the UK’s Environmental Audit Committee published the results of its inquiry into the future of chemicals regulation after Brexit, to which the British Coatings Federation (BCF) submitted a response.
The committee’s report was aligned with the views of the coatings and wider chemical industries, reflecting the sector’s concerns on the complexities around transferring REACH into UK law with the Great Repeal Bill, clarification needed from government on REACH registrations, retention of registrations, and the difficulties of having a separate UK system of chemicals regulation.
