Abstract

In accordance with Commission Decision 85/71/EEC [pursuant to Directive 92/32/EEC, the 7th amendment to Directive 67/548/EEC (hereinafter "the Directive") on the approximation of the laws, regulations and administrative provisions relating to the classification, packaging and labelling of dangerous substances] the European List of Notified Chemical Substances (ELINCS) has been established. The IHCP in co-operation with the national Competent Authorities of the Member States has prepared the updated version of ELINCS. This version of ELINCS includes all substances notified until 31st May 2008. On 1st of June 2008 this notification scheme has been revoked and replaced by the Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH, OJ L 396, 30.12.2006). Thus, this version of ELINCS is the final version and includes all substances and their dossier numbers which have been notified and which have been found conforming to the Directive.
