The UK-REACH Legislation came in-to-force and the IT systems, “Comply with UK REACH” went live.
Deadline for UK Manufacturers or importers to “Grandfather” existing UK registrations from EU to UK REACH.
Deadline for UK Importers and Only Representatives to notify the UK Authorities of “Downstream User Import Notifications” (DUINs). Note – this deadline was subsequently extended.
The industry were consulted on extending the UK REACH Submission Deadlines. The outcome was that all deadlines should be postponed.
Proposed registration deadline for substances in volumes >1000tpa, CMRs >1tpa, very toxic to aquatic organisms >100tpa and candidate list substances (version 1). Note: This deadline has not yet been written into UK Legislation.
