The Chemicals (Hazard Information and Packaging for Supply) (Amendment) (No. 3) Regulations 1999

Status:

This is the original version (as it was originally made).

Explanatory Note

(This note is not part of the Regulations)

These Regulations amend the Chemicals (Hazard Information and Packaging for Supply) Regulations 1994 (S.I. 1994/3247) (“the principal Regulations”) as amended by the Chemicals (Hazard Information and Packaging for Supply) (Amendment) Regulations 1996 (S.I. 1996/1092). They partially implement Article 1(2) of Commission Directive 97/56/EC (O.J. No. L333, 4.12.1997, p.1) which amended for the sixteenth time Council Directive 76/769/EEC. These Regulations combined with the Dangerous Substances and Preparations (Safety) (Consolidation) (Amendment) (No. 2) Regulations 1999 (S.I. 1999/3193) fully implement Article 1(2) of Directive 97/56/EC.

These Regulations amend Part III of Schedule 6 to the principal Regulations by adding to and consolidating the list of carcinogenic and mutagenic substances, and certain substances toxic for reproduction, contained therein. The principal Regulations require that a substance specified in that list or a preparation containing such a substance must in certain circumstances be labelled with the phrase “Restricted to professional users”.

A Regulatory Impact Assessment is available, copies of which have been placed in the libraries of both Houses of Parliament. Copies are also available from the Consumer Affairs Directorate of the Department of Trade and Industry, Room 433, 1 Victoria Street, London SW1H 0ET.
