Position paper - Amendments to REACH Regulation

In line with the revision of the REACH Regulation ([EC] No 1907/2006), the European Commission’s VVA Consortium carried out a study to support the impact assessment for potential amendments of the REACH Regulation to extend the use of the generic risk management approach to further hazard classes and uses, and to reform REACH authorisation and restriction. This is one of the studies supporting the European Commission’s impact assessment for the REACH revision. Additionally, in accordacne with the findings of the 2018 REACH review, AmCham EU encourages the Commission to pursue improvements that are targeted and incremental, avoiding the severe uncertainty that would stem from an unjustified overhaul of EU chemicals legislation.
