‘REACH Pre-registration’

How’s it going?

September 11^th 2008

Lancaster Environment Centre, Lancaster University, Lancaster

February saw the launch of our REACH RISP (Regional Integrated Support Programme). The programme, part funded by the NWDA, is designed to provide direct support to industry and enable Northwest companies of all sizes and types to gain access to help and advice on REACH legislation.

On September 11^th we will be over half way through the pre-registration phase for phase in substances. As part of our continued support under the RISP programme, we will consider why companies should pre-register, how the pre-registration process is progressing, including an industrial case study, and take you through an example pre-registration.
