REACH & CLP Hub: What’s new for EU REACH and the two most REACH-like regulations?

摘要

Besides EU REACH, there are several similar regulations either in development or already in force. The two that most resemble it are Turkey KKDIK (also known as Turkey REACH) and UK REACH. Unlike the regulations in the EU and Turkey, UK REACH is not yet in force and there is no legal text in existence for a scenario where the UK, currently in ‘transition’ having left the EU on 31 January, secures a deal with the union. The part of this article dealing with the UK therefore assumes that the main content of its statutory instrument developed for a no-deal Brexit will be adopted in the UK from 1 January 2021.
