Success at one day workshop

Following the success of their one day workshop in Huddersfield, and then a second in Birmingham, The REACH Centre and IEMA (Institute of Environmental Management and Assessment) have held another event in Newcastle.

The day was split into two halves, with the morning session covering current regulatory issues including the latest on REACH and CLP, enforcement activities, biocidal products directive and SVHCs.

There was also a presentation on Japanese industry from the Japan Environmental Management Association (JEMAI) for industry, and their viewpoint on EU chemicals regulations.

The second part started with a presentation from Rolls-Royce. This was then followed by a look at the key elements for compliance of the new safety data sheets. A consideration of nanotechnologies and how the development of a regulatory framework for risk assessment is progressing concluded the day.
