| (4) | Since the 169,4 to 169,8 MHz band is appropriate for applications benefiting people with impairments or disabilities, and considering that promotion of such applications is a policy objective for the Community together with the general objective of ensuring the functioning of the internal market, the Commission pursuant to Article 4(2) of the Radio Spectrum Decision issued the European Conference of Postal and Telecommunications Administration (hereinafter ‘the CEPT’) with a mandate to examine, inter alia, applications related to assistance for people with disabilities. |

ANNEX

REGULATION (EC) No .../2005 OF THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND OF THE COUNCIL

of ... relating to measures envisaged to facilitate the procedures for applying for and issuing visas for members of the Olympic family taking part in the 2006 Olympic and/or Paralympic Winter Games in Turin

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 62(2), points (a) and (b)(ii) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251 of the Treaty (1),

Whereas:

| (1) | Council Regulation (EC) No 1295/2003 of 15 July 2003 relating to measures envisaged to facilitate the procedures for applying for and issuing visas for members of the Olympic family taking part in the Olympic or Paralympic Games in Athens (2) established a specific temporary system derogating from the normal procedures for issuing visas for the members of the Olympic family participating in the Athens 2004 Olympic and/or Paralympic Games, to enable Greece to host the first Olympic and Paralympic Games organised by a Member State which is part of the Schengen area without internal borders and in order to allow Greece to respect its obligation under the Olympic Charter. |
| --- | --- |

(1)

Council Regulation (EC) No 1295/2003 of 15 July 2003 relating to measures envisaged to facilitate the procedures for applying for and issuing visas for members of the Olympic family taking part in the Olympic or Paralympic Games in Athens (2) established a specific temporary system derogating from the normal procedures for issuing visas for the members of the Olympic family participating in the Athens 2004 Olympic and/or Paralympic Games, to enable Greece to host the first Olympic and Paralympic Games organised by a Member State which is part of the Schengen area without internal borders and in order to allow Greece to respect its obligation under the Olympic Charter.

| (2) | Regulation (EC) No 1295/2003 laid down specific provisions facilitating the procedures for submitting applications for uniform visas and the form in which visas were issued for the members of the Olympic family, as well as specific provisions simplifying external border checks for that category of persons. Moreover, it provided for an evaluation report on the functioning of the Regulation to be submitted to the European Parliament and the Council. |

Regulation (EC) No 1295/2003 laid down specific provisions facilitating the procedures for submitting applications for uniform visas and the form in which visas were issued for the members of the Olympic family, as well as specific provisions simplifying external border checks for that category of persons. Moreover, it provided for an evaluation report on the functioning of the Regulation to be submitted to the European Parliament and the Council.

| (3) | In its evaluation, the Commission concluded that the implementation of Regulation (EC) No 1295/2003 was successful, and the derogation system has been considered effective, flexible and adequate for regulating the entry and short stay of members of the Olympic family participating in the Games, within the Schengen area without internal borders. |
| --- | --- |

(3)

In its evaluation, the Commission concluded that the implementation of Regulation (EC) No 1295/2003 was successful, and the derogation system has been considered effective, flexible and adequate for regulating the entry and short stay of members of the Olympic family participating in the Games, within the Schengen area without internal borders.

| (4) | Therefore the European Union should adopt a similar derogation system for the 2006 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games to allow Italy to honour, as host country, its Olympic Chapter obligations, while ensuring a high level of security in the Schengen area without internal borders. |
| --- | --- |

(4)

Therefore the European Union should adopt a similar derogation system for the 2006 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games to allow Italy to honour, as host country, its Olympic Chapter obligations, while ensuring a high level of security in the Schengen area without internal borders.

| (5) | Although the visa obligation is maintained for members of the Olympic family who are nationals of third countries subject to the visa requirement under Council Regulation (EC) No 539/2001 of 15 March 2001 listing the third countries whose nationals must be in possession of visas when crossing the external borders and those whose nationals are exempt from that requirement (3), a temporary derogation should be established for the duration of the 2006 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games. |

| (6) | The scope of this derogation should be limited to the provisions of the ‘acquis’ concerning the submission of visa applications, the issuing of visas and their format. Equally, the methods for carrying out checks at the external borders should be adapted within the limits necessary to take into account changes in the visa system. |

Equally, the methods for carrying out checks at the external borders should be adapted within the limits necessary to take into account changes in the visa system.

| (7) | Visa applications for members of the Olympic family taking part in the 2006 Olympic and/or Paralympic Winter Games should be submitted to the Organising Committee of the 2006 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games via the organisations responsible at the same time as the application for accreditation. The application form for accreditation should contain basic data relating to the persons concerned, such as their full name, sex and date and place of birth, and the number, type and expiry date of their passport and an indication of possession of a residence permit issued by a Schengen State, together with the type and expiry date of that permit. Such applications should be forwarded to the Italian services responsible for issuing visas. |

Such applications should be forwarded to the Italian services responsible for issuing visas.

| (8) | The Organising Committee of the 2006 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games issues accreditation cards to members of the Olympic family, in accordance with the specific rules defined by Italian law. The accreditation card is a highly secure document, which gives access to the specific sites where competitions are held and to other events planned during the 2006 Olympic and Paralympic Games, in view of the fact that the Games may be the target of terrorist attacks. The visa issued is affixed by means of entering a number in the accreditation card. |

For any stay within the Schengen area without internal borders whose duration is envisaged to exceed 90 days, a temporary residence permit may be issued to the member of the Olympic family in compliance with Italian law. |

Notes the WCSDG's view that, as far as the CLS are concerned, practice on the ground often belies decisions and political practices; calls on the Council, the Commission and the Member States to do everything in their power to promote the CLS in both their internal and external policies and to ensure that no aspect of these policies impedes implementation of those standards; notes the opportunity open to the EU to promote the CLS through bilateral and regional agreements, development and external cooperation, trade policies enabling market access for developing countries, promotion of private initiatives for social development and the promotion of good governance at global level;

| 15. | Calls for social rights and social dialogue, human rights and the primacy of law, and the protection of the rights of the child, in particular the right to education, to be accorded greater importance in the EU's various external programmes, with a view to priority being given to democratisation and the establishment of the rule of law in developing countries, without which no sustainable development is possible; |

| 17. | Welcomes the Commission's proposal that bilateral relations could involve positive incentives for products complying with certain social standards; welcomes the Commission's proposal for ‘joint bilateral observatories’ to discuss and monitor the social dimension of globalisation in bilateral agreements; believes, also, that the Union should use its bilateral relations to promote the recommendations of the WCSDG so that jobs which are moved off-shore or relocated outside the EU do not end up being performed in sweat shops in the third world, but, instead, jobs of high quality are created which help to improve the lives of workers and their families in the countries concerned; |

Position of the European Parliament adopted at first reading on 16 November 2005 with a view to the adoption of regulation (EC) No .../2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the establishment of a Community list of air carriers subject to an operating ban within the Community and on informing air transport passengers of the identity of the operating air carrier, and repealing Article 9 of Directive 2004/36/EC

(Text with EEA relevance)

THE EUROPEAN PARLIAMENT AND THE COUNCIL OF THE EUROPEAN UNION,

Having regard to the Treaty establishing the European Community, and in particular Article 80(2) thereof,

Having regard to the proposal from the Commission,

Having regard to the Opinion of the European Economic and Social Committee (1),

After consulting the Committee of the Regions,

Acting in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 251 of the Treaty (2),

Whereas:

| (1) | Action by the Community in the field of air transport should aim, as a priority, at ensuring a high level of protection for passengers from safety risks. Moreover, full account should be taken of the requirements of consumer protection in general. |
| --- | --- |

(1)

Action by the Community in the field of air transport should aim, as a priority, at ensuring a high level of protection for passengers from safety risks. Moreover, full account should be taken of the requirements of consumer protection in general.

| (2) | A Community list of air carriers that do not meet relevant safety requirements should be brought to the notice of passengers so as to ensure the utmost transparency. This Community list should be based on common criteria drawn up at Community level. |
| --- | --- |

(2)

A Community list of air carriers that do not meet relevant safety requirements should be brought to the notice of passengers so as to ensure the utmost transparency. This Community list should be based on common criteria drawn up at Community level.

| (3) | Air carriers included in the Community list should be subject to an operating ban. The operating bans included in the Community list should apply throughout the territory of the Member States to which the Treaty applies. |
| --- | --- |

(3)

Air carriers included in the Community list should be subject to an operating ban. The operating bans included in the Community list should apply throughout the territory of the Member States to which the Treaty applies.

| (4) | Air carriers that do not enjoy traffic rights in one or more of the Member States may nonetheless fly to and from the Community when their aircraft, with or without crew, are leased by companies that do enjoy such rights. Provision should be made for an operating ban included in the Community list to apply equally to such air carriers, since these air carriers could otherwise operate in the Community while not complying with the relevant safety standards. |
| --- | --- |

(4)

Air carriers that do not enjoy traffic rights in one or more of the Member States may nonetheless fly to and from the Community when their aircraft, with or without crew, are leased by companies that do enjoy such rights. Provision should be made for an operating ban included in the Community list to apply equally to such air carriers, since these air carriers could otherwise operate in the Community while not complying with the relevant safety standards.

| (5) | An air carrier which is subject to an operating ban could be permitted to exercise traffic rights by using wet-leased aircraft of an air carrier which is not subject to an operating ban, provided that the relevant safety standards are complied with. |
| --- | --- |

(5)

An air carrier which is subject to an operating ban could be permitted to exercise traffic rights by using wet-leased aircraft of an air carrier which is not subject to an operating ban, provided that the relevant safety standards are complied with.

| (6) | The procedure for updating the Community list should allow for decisions to be taken swiftly, in order to provide adequate and up-to-date safety information to air passengers and to guarantee that air carriers that have remedied safety deficiencies are taken off the list as soon as possible. At the same time, the procedures should respect the air carrier's rights of defence and should be without prejudice to international agreements and conventions to which the Member States or the Community are parties, in particular the 1944 Chicago Convention on International Civil Aviation. The implementing measures on matters of procedure, to be adopted by the Commission, should notably cater for these requirements. |

The implementing measures on matters of procedure, to be adopted by the Commission, should notably cater for these requirements.

| (7) | When an operating ban has been imposed on an air carrier, appropriate action should be taken with a view to assisting that air carrier in remedying the deficiencies that gave rise to that ban. |
| --- | --- |

(7)

When an operating ban has been imposed on an air carrier, appropriate action should be taken with a view to assisting that air carrier in remedying the deficiencies that gave rise to that ban.

| (8) | In exceptional cases, Member States should be allowed to take unilateral measures. In cases of urgency and when confronted with an unforeseen safety problem, Member States should have the possibility to impose immediately an operating ban in respect of their own territory. Moreover, where the Commission has decided not to include an air carrier in the Community list, Member States should also be able to impose or maintain an operating ban in view of a safety problem which does not exist in the other Member States. Member States should make restrictive application of these possibilities, taking account of the Community interest and with a view to presenting a common approach in respect of aviation safety. This should be without prejudice to Article 8 of Council Regulation (EEC) No 3922/91 of 16 December 1991 on the harmonization of technical requirements and administrative procedures in the field of civil aviation (3) and to Article 10 of Regulation (EC) No 1592/2002 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 15 July 2002 on common rules in the field of civil aviation and establishing a European Aviation Safety Agency (4). |

Information on the safety of air carriers should be published in an effective manner, such as through use of the Internet.

| (10) | In order for the competitive framework in air transport to yield the greatest possible benefits for companies and passengers, it is important that consumers receive the necessary information to be able to make informed choices. |

(10)

In order for the competitive framework in air transport to yield the greatest possible benefits for companies and passengers, it is important that consumers receive the necessary information to be able to make informed choices.

| (11) | The identity of the air carrier or carriers actually operating the flight is an essential piece of information. However, consumers concluding a contract of carriage, which could comprise both an outward and a return flight, are not always informed about the identity of the air carrier or carriers actually operating the flight or flights concerned. |

However, consumers concluding a contract of carriage, which could comprise both an outward and a return flight, are not always informed about the identity of the air carrier or carriers actually operating the flight or flights concerned.

| (12) | Council Directive 90/314/EEC of 13 June 1990 on package travel, package holidays and package tours (5) requires certain information to be made available to consumers, but that information does not include the identity of the operating air carrier. |

Council Directive 90/314/EEC of 13 June 1990 on package travel, package holidays and package tours (5) requires certain information to be made available to consumers, but that information does not include the identity of the operating air carrier.

| (13) | Council Regulation (EEC) No 2299/89 of 24 July 1989 on a code of conduct for computer reservation systems (CRS) (6) entitles consumers booking a flight via a computer reservation system to be informed of the identity of the operating air carrier. Nevertheless, even in scheduled air transport, industry practices exist, such as wet leasing, or code-sharing if booked without a CRS, where the air carrier which has sold the flight under its name does not actually operate it and where there is currently no legal right for the passenger to be informed of the identity of the air carrier actually performing the service. |

| (14) | These practices increase flexibility and allow a better provision of services to passengers. Moreover, a certain number of last minute changes, in particular for technical reasons, is unavoidable and contributes to the safety of air transport. This flexibility should, however, be balanced by verification that the companies actually operating the flights meet safety requirements and by transparency for consumers in order to guarantee them the right of making an informed choice. A fair balance between the commercial viability of air carriers and passenger access to information should be sought. |

| (16) | Air carriers are responsible for reporting safety deficiencies to the national air safety authorities as well as for addressing such deficiencies without delay. Air and ground crew are expected to take appropriate action when safety deficiencies are apparent to them. It would be contrary to the interests of aviation safety if staff were to be penalised for doing so, as follows from Article 8(4) of Directive 2003/42/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 13 June 2003 on occurrence reporting in civil aviation (7). |

| (18) | In addition to the rules set out in this Regulation, the implications of changes to the identity of the operating carrier for the performance of the contract of carriage should be governed by the laws of the Member States applicable to contracts and by relevant Community law, in particular Council Directives 90/314/EEC and 93/13/EEC of 5 April 1993 on unfair terms in consumer contracts (9). |

| (19) | This Regulation is part of a legislative process pursuing an efficient and coherent approach to reinforcing air safety in the Community, in which the European Aviation Safety Agency plays an important role. With an extension of the competencies of this Agency, such as in respect of third-country aircraft, its role under this Regulation could be further expanded. Special attention should be given to further improving the quality and quantity of safety inspections of aircraft and to harmonising these inspections. |

Establishment of the Community List

1.   With a view to reinforcing air safety, a list of air carriers that are subject to an operating ban in the Community (hereinafter referred to as ‘the Community list’) shall be established. Each Member State shall enforce, within its territory, the operating bans included in the Community list in respect of the air carriers that are the subject of those bans.

2.   The common criteria for imposing an operating ban on an air carrier, which shall be based on the relevant safety standards, are set out in the Annex (and are hereinafter referred to as ‘the common criteria’). The Commission may modify the Annex, in particular in order to take account of scientific and technical developments, in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 15(3).

3.   For the purpose of establishing the Community list for the first time, each Member State shall, by ... (12), communicate to the Commission the identity of the air carriers that are subject to an operating ban in its territory, together with the reasons which led to the adoption of such bans and any other relevant information. The Commission shall inform the other Member States of these operating bans.

4.   Within one month of receiving the information communicated by the Member States, the Commission shall, on the basis of the common criteria, decide on the imposition of an operating ban on the air carriers concerned and shall establish the Community list of air carriers on which it has imposed an operating ban, in accordance with the procedure referred to in Article 15(3).

Stresses that economic development is a right for all developing countries; emphasises that the European Union and other industrialised nations must assist the developing countries in the development of sustainable technologies; stresses, however, that developing countries do not have to emulate the polluting practices of the industrialised countries; believes that the rules of the Clean Development Mechanism need to be reformed so that they deliver sustainable development; suggests that the lending priorities of international financial institutions as well as EU aid efforts be shifted towards supporting renewable energy and energy efficiency; proposes as well the launching of a multilateral Sustainable Energy Initiative — involving the EU, countries such as China, India, Brazil, South Africa etc. and some major energy-related corporations — whose aim should be to promote technology cooperation in a big way, energy and transport being the main targets, building on the example of the recently agreed EU-China Climate Change Partnership;

In case C-305/05, on a request from the Belgian Ordres des barreaux, the Cour d'arbitrage (Belgium) had referred to the European Court of Justice a question relating to the validity of certain provisions of Directive 2001/97/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 4 December 2001 amending Council Directive 91/308/EEC on prevention of the use of the financial system for the purpose of money laundering (OJ L 344, 28.12.2001, p. 76)).

Giuseppe Gargani, Chairman of the JURI Committee, had informed the President of Parliament of his committee's wish to avail of the opportunity to submit observations to the Court of Justice under Article 23 of the Court's statute.

Having informed the Conference of Presidents of the matter, the President of Parliament, on the basis of the powers conferred upon him by Rule 19(4) of the Rules of Procedure, had decided that, within the set timeframe, the necessary observations would be submitted to the Court in favour of a ruling in case C-305/05 that the act in question adopted under the codecision procedure was indeed valid.

| (13) | Producers, importers and downstream users of a substance in its basic form or as a component of a preparation or of an article are required to manufacture, import or use that substance (or place it on the market) in such a way as to ensure that, under reasonably foreseeable conditions, no damage is caused to human health or to the environment. |

| (14) | It is clear from current liability law that any producer, importer or downstream user who carries out or plans to carry out operations involving a substance or preparation, or an article containing such substance or preparation — including its production, import or use — and who knows or could reasonably have foreseen that these operations might have a detrimental impact on human health or the environment, should make every effort which may reasonably be expected of him to prevent, limit or remedy such effects. |

Management of the risks of substances should concern in equal measure both the chemical substances manufactured in the European Union and imported substances manufactured in third countries, in order to prevent non-European production being favoured and boosted by the excessive burdens imposed on European manufacturers.

| (16) | For these reasons, the registration provisions require manufacturers and importers to generate data on the substances they manufacture or import, use these data to assess the risks related to these substances and to develop and recommend appropriate risk management measures. To ensure that they actually meet these obligations, as well as for transparency reasons, registration requires them to submit a dossier containing all this information to the Agency to be established by this Regulation. Registered substances should be allowed to circulate on the internal market. |

| (17) | The evaluation provisions provide for follow-up to registration, by checking that registrations are in compliance with the requirements of this Regulation and by allowing for generation of more information on the properties of substances.
  The Agency, relying on the body/bodies designated for that purpose by each Member State,
  should evaluate such substances if
  it has
  reasons for suspecting that such substances present a risk to health or the environment, after having included them in
  the Community rolling plan

| (18) | Although the information yielded on substances through evaluation should be used in the first place by manufacturers and importers to manage the risks related to their substances, it may be used to initiate the authorisation or restrictions procedures under this Regulation or risk management procedures under other Community legislation; therefore it should be ensured that this information is available to the appropriate authorities and may be used by them for the purpose of such procedures. |

General requirements for generation of information on intrinsic properties of substances

1.   Information on intrinsic properties of substances
  , in particular for human toxicity, shall
  be generated
  whenever possible
  by means other than
  vertebrate animal
  tests, in particular through the use of qualitative or quantitative structure-activity relationship models or from information from structurally related substances, provided that the conditions set out in Annex IX are met
  , or through toxicogenomics
  .

2.   Where tests on substances are required to generate information on intrinsic properties of substances, they shall be conducted in accordance with the test methods laid down in Annex X.

These methods shall be regularly reviewed and improved with a view to reducing experimentation on vertebrate animals and the number of animals involved. In particular, if ECVAM declares an alternative test method valid and ready for regulatory acceptance, the Agency shall submit within 14 days a draft decision amending the relevant Annex(es) to this Regulation, in accordance with the procedure provided for in Article 139, with a view to replacing the animal test method with the alternative one.

Information on intrinsic properties of substances may be generated in accordance with other test methods provided that the conditions set out in Annex IX are met.

3.   
  New
  laboratory tests
  involving vertebrate animals
  shall be carried out in compliance with the principles of good laboratory practice provided for in Directive 87/18/EEC and with the provisions of Directive 86/609/EEC.

4.   If a substance has already been registered, a new registrant shall be entitled to refer to studies and test reports, hereinafter ‘studies’, for the same substance submitted earlier, provided that he can show that the substance that he is now registering is the same as the one previously registered.
  The substance shall be considered to be the same if
  the degree of purity and the nature of impurities
  are similar and do not modify its toxicity profile. The new registrant shall
  submit a letter of access from the previous
  registrant (s)
  .

However, a new registrant shall not refer to such studies in order to provide the information required in section 2 of Annex IV.

Article 26

Objectives and general rules

1.
     
  Manufacturers or importers shall share between them and make available the information specified in Article 11(a) (vii) and (viii) for the purposes of registration, so that the duplication of studies is avoided.

In circumstances (other than in matters requiring data from animal testing) where:

| (a) | the costs of sharing the information would be disproportionate; |
| --- | --- |

(a)

the costs of sharing the information would be disproportionate;

| (b) | the data is not relevant for a substance; or |
| --- | --- |

(b)

the data is not relevant for a substance; or

| (c) | the information is commercially confidential and the registrant justifiably considers that he may suffer loss of business as a result of requirements to share the information concerned, |
| --- | --- |

(c)

the information is commercially confidential and the registrant justifiably considers that he may suffer loss of business as a result of requirements to share the information concerned,

the registrant shall submit to the Agency a justification for not sharing the information in part or in whole.

At the request of another potential registrant, and on payment of a fee, the Agency shall consider whether a justification is well-founded. SMEs shall pay only a reduced fee. If the Agency finds that a justification is not well-founded, the exemption from sharing shall not be allowed to the original registrant, and the costs of the Agency related to its consideration shall be borne by him. In such cases, the fee paid shall be reimbursed.

No justification shall be required for not sharing physicochemical information specified in section 5 of Annexes V and VII.

2.   In order to avoid unnecessary animal testing, testing on vertebrate animals for the purposes of this Regulation shall be undertaken only as a last
  resort
  .

3.   The sharing and joint submission of information in accordance with this Regulation shall concern technical data and in particular information related to the intrinsic properties of substances. Registrants shall refrain from exchanging information concerning their market behaviour, in particular as regards production capacities, production or sales volumes, import volumes or market shares.

4.   Any summaries or robust study summaries of studies
  relating to both animal and to non-animal tests
  submitted in the framework of a registration at least
  15 years
  previously may be made freely available by the Agency to any other registrants or potential
  registrants
  .

5.
     
  Any producer, importer or downstream user may appoint a third party as representative in all proceedings under this Title.

(c)

which information requirements would require new studies involving vertebrate animals to be carried out by
  him
  .

4.   
  If
  the same substance has
  previously been
  registered
  less than 10 years earlier
  , the Agency shall inform the potential registrant
  without delay of the name(s) and address(es) of the previous registrant(s) and of the relevant summaries or robust study summaries of the studies, as the case may be, already submitted by them
  .

The available studies must be shared with the potential registrant in accordance with Article 28.

5.   
  If
  another potential registrant has made an inquiry in respect of the same substance, the Agency shall inform both potential registrants,
  or their third party representative appointed under Article 26(5),
  without delay of the name and address of the other potential
  registrant
  .

Article 28

Sharing of existing data between registrants

1.   In the case of substances previously registered less than
  15 years earlier,
  the potential registrant shall ask the previous registrant(s) for the
  information he
  requires
  with respect to Article 11(a)(vii) and (viii)
  in order to
  register
  .

2.   The potential and the previous registrant(s) for the same substance shall take all reasonable steps to reach an agreement on the sharing and making available of studies involving any type of test. Such an agreement may be replaced by submission of the matter to an arbitration board and acceptance of the arbitration order.

3.   If an agreement on the sharing of studies has been reached, the previous registrant(s) shall grant a letter of access to the potential registrant for the studies concerned within two weeks of receipt of payment.

The new registrant shall refer to these studies in his registration dossier and shall submit the letter of access from the previous registrant(s).

4.   If there is failure to reach such an agreement, the potential registrant may inform the Agency and the previous registrant(s) thereof at least one month after receipt, from the Agency, of the name and address of the previous registrant(s).

5.   The previous registrant(s) shall have one month from the receipt of the information referred to in paragraph 4 to inform the potential registrant and the Agency of the cost incurred by him for the study concerned. At the request of the potential registrant, the Agency shall take the decision to make available to him the summaries or robust study summaries, as the case may be, of the studies concerned, or the results thereof, on receipt of proof that he has paid the previous registrant(s)
  a share
  of the cost shown by the latter
  , calculated in accordance with paragraph 6
  .

6.
     
  The sharing of the actual costs incurred by the original registrant(s) for the study concerned shall be calculated in a way which is proportional to each party's production/import volume.

Where the original total cost has already been shared between two or more registrants, any subsequent potential registrant(s) shall pay each registrant a fair share of his contribution to costs.

7.
     
  If the potential registrant fails to pay his share of the cost of a study involving tests on vertebrate animals or another study that may prevent animal testing, he shall not be able to register his substance.

8.   If the previous registrant(s) fail(s) to inform the potential registrant and the Agency of the cost within the deadline set in paragraph 5, the Agency, on request, shall take the decision to make available to the potential registrant the summaries or robust study summaries, as the case may be, of the studies concerned as required by him. The previous registrant(s) shall have a claim on the potential registrant for
  a share
  of the cost,
  calculated in accordance with paragraph 6,
  which shall be enforceable in the national courts.

9.   An appeal may be brought, in accordance with Articles 98, 99 and 100, against Agency decisions under paragraphs 5 and 8 of this Article

10.   The registration waiting period in accordance with Article 21(1) for the new registrant shall be extended by a period of 4 months, if the previous registrant so requests.

Article 31

Substance Information Exchange Fora

1.   All manufacturers and importers who have submitted information to the Agency in accordance with Article 29 for the same phase-in substance shall be participants in a substance information exchange forum (Sief).

2.   The aim of each Sief shall be to minimise the duplication of tests by exchanging information. Sief participants shall provide other participants with existing studies, react to requests by other participants for information, collectively identify needs for further studies and arrange for them to be carried out.

3.
     
  Sief participants shall make every effort to agree on the interpretation of the information that they exchange.

Article 32

Sharing of data involving tests
  between registrants

1.   Before
  testing is
  carried out in order to meet the information requirements for the purposes of registration, a Sief participant shall inquire whether a relevant study is available by consulting the database referred to in Article 29(9) and by communicating within his Sief. If a relevant study is available within the Sief, a participant of that Sief who would have to carry out a
  test shall
  request that study within two months of the deadline set in Article 29(3).

Within two weeks of the request, the owner of the study shall provide proof of its cost to the participant(s) requesting it. The participant(s) and the owner shall take all reasonable steps to reach an agreement on how to share the cost. If they cannot reach such an agreement, the cost shall be shared
  in a way which is proportional to each party's production volume
  . The owner shall provide the study within two weeks of receipt of payment.

2.
     
  Failure to make available to the Agency vertebrate animal data or other information that could prevent animal testing will result in potential registrants forfeiting their right to register the substance concerned.

3.
     
  If the other participant(s) fail to pay their share of the cost, they shall not be able to register their substance.

4.
     
  If the owner of the study fails to make the study available to the Agency, he shall not be able to register his substance.

5.   If a relevant study involving
  tests is
  not available within the Sief, the participant shall contact other participants of that Sief who have submitted information about the same or a similar use of the substance and who might need to carry out that study. They shall take all reasonable steps to reach an agreement as to who is to carry it out on behalf of the other participants.

6.   If the owner of a study as referred to in paragraph 5 refuses to provide either proof of the cost of that study or the study itself to another participant(s), the other participant(s) shall proceed as if no relevant study were available within the Sief, unless a registration containing the summary or robust study summary, as the case may be, of the study has already been submitted by another registrant. In such cases, the Agency shall take the decision to make available to the other participant(s) that summary or robust study summary, as the case may be. The other registrant shall have a claim on the participants for
  a share
  of the cost
  which is proportional to his production volume,
  which shall be enforceable in the national courts.

7.
     
  If the other participant(s) fail to pay their share of the cost, they shall not be able to register their substance.

8.   An appeal may be brought, in accordance with Articles 98, 99 and 100, against Agency decisions under paragraph 6 of this Article.

9.   The owner of the study who has refused to provide either the costs or the study itself, as referred to in paragraph 6, shall be penalised in accordance with Article 134.

ANNEX I

GENERAL PROVISIONS FOR ASSESSING SUBSTANCES AND PREPARING CHEMICAL SAFETY REPORTS

0.   INTRODUCTION

| 0.1. | The purpose of this Annex is to set out how manufacturers and importers are to assess and document that the risks arising from the substance they manufacture or import are adequately controlled during manufacture and their own use(s) and that others further down the supply chain can adequately control the risks. |
| --- | --- |

0.1.

The purpose of this Annex is to set out how manufacturers and importers are to assess and document that the risks arising from the substance they manufacture or import are adequately controlled during manufacture and their own use(s) and that others further down the supply chain can adequately control the risks.

| 0.2. | The chemical safety assessment shall address all the identified uses. It shall consider the use of the substance on its own (including any major impurities and additives), in a preparation or in an article. The assessment shall consider all stages of the life-cycle
  (including the waste phase, notwithstanding Article 2(1)(d) of this Regulation)
  of the substance as defined by the identified uses. The chemical safety assessment shall be based on a comparison of the potential adverse effects of a substance with the known or reasonably foreseeable exposure of man and/or the environment to that substance. |
| --- | --- |

0.2.

The chemical safety assessment shall address all the identified uses. It shall consider the use of the substance on its own (including any major impurities and additives), in a preparation or in an article. The assessment shall consider all stages of the life-cycle
  (including the waste phase, notwithstanding Article 2(1)(d) of this Regulation)
  of the substance as defined by the identified uses. The chemical safety assessment shall be based on a comparison of the potential adverse effects of a substance with the known or reasonably foreseeable exposure of man and/or the environment to that substance.

| 0.3. | If the manufacturer or importer considers that the chemical safety assessment carried out for one substance is sufficient to assess and document that the risks arising from another substance or from a group of substances are adequately controlled then he can use that chemical safety assessment for the other substance or group of substances. The manufacturer or importer shall provide a justification for this. |
| --- | --- |

0.3.

If the manufacturer or importer considers that the chemical safety assessment carried out for one substance is sufficient to assess and document that the risks arising from another substance or from a group of substances are adequately controlled then he can use that chemical safety assessment for the other substance or group of substances. The manufacturer or importer shall provide a justification for this.

| 0.4. | The chemical safety assessment shall be based on the information on the substance contained in the technical dossier and on other available and relevant information. Available information from assessments carried out under other international and national programmes shall be included. Where available and appropriate, an assessment carried out under Community legislation (e.g. risk assessments completed under Regulation (EEC) No 793/93) shall be taken into account in the development of, and reflected in, the chemical safety report. Deviations from such assessments shall be justified.
  Thus the information to be considered includes information related to the hazard of the substance, the exposure arising from the manufacture or import and the identified uses of the substance.
  In accordance with Annex IX, Section 3, in some cases, it may not be necessary to generate missing information, because risk management measures which are necessary to control a well-characterised risk may also be sufficient to control other potential risks, which will not therefore need to be characterised precisely.
  If the manufacturer or importer considers that further information is necessary for producing his chemical safety report and that this information can only be obtained by performing tests in accordance with
  Annex VI,
  VII or VIII using vertebrate animals, he shall submit a proposal for a testing strategy, explaining why he considers that additional information is necessary and record this in the chemical safety report under the appropriate heading. While waiting for results of further testing, he shall record the risk management measures he has put in place in his chemical safety report. |
| --- | --- |

0.4.

Thus the information to be considered includes information related to the hazard of the substance, the exposure arising from the manufacture or import and the identified uses of the substance.

In accordance with Annex IX, Section 3, in some cases, it may not be necessary to generate missing information, because risk management measures which are necessary to control a well-characterised risk may also be sufficient to control other potential risks, which will not therefore need to be characterised precisely.

If the manufacturer or importer considers that further information is necessary for producing his chemical safety report and that this information can only be obtained by performing tests in accordance with

PBT and vPvB assessment

If as a result of steps 1 to 4 the manufacturer or importer concludes that the substance or the preparation meets the criteria for classification as dangerous according to Directives 67/548/EEC or 1999/45/EC or is assessed to be a PBT or vPvB, the chemical safety assessment shall also consider the following steps:

| 5. | Exposure assessment |

6.

Risk characterisation

A summary of all the relevant information used in addressing the points above, shall be presented under the relevant heading of the chemical safety report (Section 7).

| 0.6. | The main element of the exposure part of the chemical safety report is the description of the manufacturer's or importer's exposure scenario(s) and the exposure scenario(s) recommended by the manufacturer or importer to be implemented for the identified use(s). The exposure scenarios contain a description of the risk management measures which the manufacturer or importer has implemented and recommends to be implemented by downstream users. If the substance is placed on the market, these exposure scenarios including the risk management measures shall be summarised in an annex to the safety data sheet in accordance with Annex IA. |
| --- | --- |

0.6.

The main element of the exposure part of the chemical safety report is the description of the manufacturer's or importer's exposure scenario(s) and the exposure scenario(s) recommended by the manufacturer or importer to be implemented for the identified use(s). The exposure scenarios contain a description of the risk management measures which the manufacturer or importer has implemented and recommends to be implemented by downstream users. If the substance is placed on the market, these exposure scenarios including the risk management measures shall be summarised in an annex to the safety data sheet in accordance with Annex IA.

| 0.7. | The level of detail required in describing an exposure scenario will vary substantially from case to case, depending on the use of a substance, its hazardous properties and the amount of information available to the manufacturer or importer. Exposure scenarios can describe the appropriate risk management measures for several individual uses of a substance. Single exposure scenarios may thereby cover large ranges of uses. |

The level of detail required in describing an exposure scenario will vary substantially from case to case, depending on the use of a substance, its hazardous properties and the amount of information available to the manufacturer or importer. Exposure scenarios can describe the appropriate risk management measures for several individual uses of a substance. Single exposure scenarios may thereby cover large ranges of uses.

| 0.8. | The process which the manufacturer or importer goes through, in carrying out their chemical safety assessment and developing their chemical safety reports, may be iterative. Iterations may consider on the one hand developing and revising the exposure scenario(s), which may include developing and implementing or recommending risk management measures, and on the other hand the need to generate further information. The purpose of generating further information is to establish a more precise risk characterisation, based on a refined hazard assessment or exposure assessment. This will allow appropriate information to be communicated down the supply chain in the safety data sheet. |

Based on all the available information, other effects shall be considered when necessary.

| 1.0.3. | The hazard assessment shall comprise the following four steps:






  Step 1. | Evaluation of non-human data |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Step 2. | Evaluation of human data |
| Step 3. | Classification and Labelling |
| Step 4. | Derivation of Derived No-Effect Levels (Dnels) |

1.0.3.

The hazard assessment shall comprise the following four steps:

Step 1.

Evaluation of non-human data

Step 2.

Evaluation of human data

Step 3.

Classification and Labelling

Step 4.

Derivation of Derived No-Effect Levels (Dnels)

| 1.0.4. | The first three steps shall be undertaken for every effect for which information is available and shall be recorded under the relevant section of the Chemical Safety Report and where required and in accordance with Article 33, summarised in the Safety Data Sheet under headings 2 and 11. |
| --- | --- |

1.0.4.

The first three steps shall be undertaken for every effect for which information is available and shall be recorded under the relevant section of the Chemical Safety Report and where required and in accordance with Article 33, summarised in the Safety Data Sheet under headings 2 and 11.

| 1.0.5. | For any effect for which no relevant information is available, the relevant section shall contain the sentence ‘This information is not required by this regulation. See the justification at ...’. |
| --- | --- |

1.0.5.

For any effect for which no relevant information is available, the relevant section shall contain the sentence ‘This information is not required by this regulation. See the justification at ...’.

| 1.0.6. | Step 4 of the human health hazard assessment shall be undertaken by integrating the results from the first three steps and shall be included under the relevant heading of the Chemical Safety Report and summarised in the Safety Data Sheet under heading 8.1. |
| --- | --- |

1.0.6.

Step 4 of the human health hazard assessment shall be undertaken by integrating the results from the first three steps and shall be included under the relevant heading of the Chemical Safety Report and summarised in the Safety Data Sheet under heading 8.1.

| 1.1. | Step 1: Evaluation of non-human data






  1.1.1. | The evaluation of non-human data shall comprise:






  — | the hazard identification for the effect based on all available non-human data; |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |

1.1.

Step 1: Evaluation of non-human data

1.1.1.

The evaluation of non-human data shall comprise:

—

the hazard identification for the effect based on all available non-human data;

| — | the establishment of the quantitative dose (concentration) — response (effect) relationship. |
| --- | --- |

—

the establishment of the quantitative dose (concentration) — response (effect) relationship.

| 1.1.2. | When it is not possible to establish the quantitative dose (concentration) — response (effect) relationship, then this should be justified and a semi-quantitative or qualitative analysis shall be included. For acute effects it is usually not possible to establish the quantitative dose (concentration) — response (effect) relationship on the basis of the results of a test conducted in accordance with Annex X. In such cases it suffices to determine whether and to which degree the substance has an inherent capacity to cause the effect. |
| --- | --- |

1.1.2.

When it is not possible to establish the quantitative dose (concentration) — response (effect) relationship, then this should be justified and a semi-quantitative or qualitative analysis shall be included. For acute effects it is usually not possible to establish the quantitative dose (concentration) — response (effect) relationship on the basis of the results of a test conducted in accordance with Annex X. In such cases it suffices to determine whether and to which degree the substance has an inherent capacity to cause the effect.

| 1.1.3. | All non-human data used to assess a particular effect on humans and to establish the dose (concentration) — response (effect) relationship, shall be briefly presented, if possible in the form of a table or tables, distinguishing between in vitro, in vivo and other data. The relevant test results (e.g., LD50, NO(A)EL or LO(A)EL) and test conditions (e.g., test duration, route of administration) and other relevant information shall be presented, in internationally recognised units of measurement for that effect. |
| --- | --- |

1.1.3.

All non-human data used to assess a particular effect on humans and to establish the dose (concentration) — response (effect) relationship, shall be briefly presented, if possible in the form of a table or tables, distinguishing between in vitro, in vivo and other data. The relevant test results (e.g., LD50, NO(A)EL or LO(A)EL) and test conditions (e.g., test duration, route of administration) and other relevant information shall be presented, in internationally recognised units of measurement for that effect.

| 1.1.4. | If there are several studies addressing the same effect, then normally the study or studies giving rise to the highest concern shall be used to establish the Derived No-Effect Levels and a robust study summary shall be prepared for that study or studies and included as part of the technical dossier. If the study or studies giving rise to the highest concern are not used, then this shall be fully justified and robust study summaries shall be prepared and included as part of the technical dossier, not only for the study being used but also for all studies demonstrating a higher concern than the study being used. For substances where all available studies indicate no hazards an overall assessment of the validity of all studies should be performed. |
| --- | --- |

1.1.4.

If there are several studies addressing the same effect, then normally the study or studies giving rise to the highest concern shall be used to establish the Derived No-Effect Levels and a robust study summary shall be prepared for that study or studies and included as part of the technical dossier. If the study or studies giving rise to the highest concern are not used, then this shall be fully justified and robust study summaries shall be prepared and included as part of the technical dossier, not only for the study being used but also for all studies demonstrating a higher concern than the study being used. For substances where all available studies indicate no hazards an overall assessment of the validity of all studies should be performed.

| 1.2. | Step 2: Evaluation of human data
  If no human data are available, this part shall contain the statement ‘No human data are available’. However, if human data is available, it shall be presented, if possible in the form of a table. |
| --- | --- |

1.2.

Step 2: Evaluation of human data

If no human data are available, this part shall contain the statement ‘No human data are available’. However, if human data is available, it shall be presented, if possible in the form of a table.

| 1.3. | Step 3: Classification and Labelling






  1.3.1. | The appropriate classification and labelling developed in accordance with the criteria in Directive 67/548/EEC shall be presented and justified. A comparison of the available data with the criteria given in Directive 67/548/EEC for CMR, categories 1 and 2, shall always be performed and a statement presented of whether the substance fulfils or does not fulfil those criteria. |
| --- | --- | --- |

1.3.

Step 3: Classification and Labelling

1.3.1.

The appropriate classification and labelling developed in accordance with the criteria in Directive 67/548/EEC shall be presented and justified. A comparison of the available data with the criteria given in Directive 67/548/EEC for CMR, categories 1 and 2, shall always be performed and a statement presented of whether the substance fulfils or does not fulfil those criteria.

| 1.3.2. | If the data are inadequate to decide whether a substance should be classified for a particular end-point, the registrant shall indicate and justify the action or decision he has taken as a result. |
| --- | --- |

1.3.2.

If the data are inadequate to decide whether a substance should be classified for a particular end-point, the registrant shall indicate and justify the action or decision he has taken as a result.

| 1.4. | Step 4: Identification of Derived No-Effect Level(s) (DNEL(s))






  1.4.1. | Based on the outcomes of steps 1 to 3, a Derived No-Effect Level(s) shall be established for the substance, reflecting the likely route(s), duration and frequency of exposure. If justified by the exposure scenario(s), a single Dnel may be sufficient. However, taking into account the available data and the exposure scenario(s) in Section 5 of the Chemical Safety Report it may be necessary to identify different DNELs for each relevant human population (e.g., workers, consumers and humans liable to exposure indirectly via the environment)
  and for vulnerable populations
  and for different routes of exposure. A full justification shall be given specifying, inter alia, the choice of the data used, the route of exposure (oral, dermal, inhalation) and the duration and frequency of exposure to the substance for which the Dnel is valid. If more than one route of exposure is likely to occur, then a Dnel shall be estgablished for each route of exposure and for the exposure from all routes combined. When established the Dnel, the following factors shall, inter alia, be taken into account:






  (i) | the uncertainty arising, among other factors, from the variability in the experimental data and from intra- and inter-species variation; |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |

1.4.

Step 4: Identification of Derived No-Effect Level(s) (DNEL(s))

1.4.1.

Based on the outcomes of steps 1 to 3, a Derived No-Effect Level(s) shall be established for the substance, reflecting the likely route(s), duration and frequency of exposure. If justified by the exposure scenario(s), a single Dnel may be sufficient. However, taking into account the available data and the exposure scenario(s) in Section 5 of the Chemical Safety Report it may be necessary to identify different DNELs for each relevant human population (e.g., workers, consumers and humans liable to exposure indirectly via the environment)

If more than one route of exposure is likely to occur, then a Dnel shall be estgablished for each route of exposure and for the exposure from all routes combined. When established the Dnel, the following factors shall, inter alia, be taken into account:

(i)

the uncertainty arising, among other factors, from the variability in the experimental data and from intra- and inter-species variation;

| (ii) | the nature and severity of the effect; |
| --- | --- |

(1)  In general, the more extensive the data and the longer the duration of the tests, the smaller is the degree of uncertainty and the size of the assessment factor. An assessment factor of 1 000 is typically applied to the lowest of three short term L(E)C50 values derived from species representing different trophic levels and a factor of 10 to the lowest of three long-term NOEC values derived from species representing different trophic levels.

ANNEX IA

GUIDE TO THE COMPILATION OF SAFETY DATA SHEETS

This Annex sets out the requirements for a Safety Data Sheet that is provided for a substance or a preparation in accordance with Article 33. The Safety Data Sheet provides a mechanism for transmitting appropriate information from the relevant Chemical Safety Report(s) down the supply chain to the immediate downstream user(s). The information provided in the Safety Data Sheet shall be consistent with the information in the chemical safety report, where one is required. Where a chemical safety report has been performed, the relevant exposure scenario(s) shall be placed into an annex of the safety data sheet, to make reference to them under the relevant headings of the safety data sheet easier.

The purpose of this Annex is to ensure consistency and accuracy in the content of each of the mandatory headings listed in Article 33, so that the resulting safety data sheets will enable users to take the necessary measures relating to protection of health and safety at the workplace, and protection of the environment.

The information provided by safety data sheets shall also meet the requirements set out in Council Directive 98/24/EC. In particular, the safety data sheet shall enable the employer to determine whether any hazardous chemical agents are present in the workplace, and to assess any risk to the health and safety of workers arising from their use.

The information in the Safety Data Sheet shall be written in a clear and concise manner. The safety data sheet shall be prepared by a competent person who shall take into account the specific needs of the user audience, as far as it is known. Persons placing substances and preparations on the market shall ensure that competent persons have received appropriate training, including refresher training.

For preparations not classified as dangerous, but for which a safety data sheet is required according to Article 34, proportionate information shall be provided under each heading.

Additional information may be necessary in some cases in view of the wide range of properties of the substances and preparations. If in other cases it emerges that information on certain properties is of no significance or that it is technically impossible to provide, the reasons for this shall be clearly stated under each heading. Information shall be provided for each hazardous property. If it is stated that a particular hazard does not apply, clearly differentiate between cases where no information is available to the classifier, and cases where negative test results are available.

Give the date of issue of the safety data sheet on the first page. When a safety data sheet has been revised, the changes shall be brought to the attention of the recipient.

Note

Safety data sheets are also required for certain special substances and preparations (e.g. metals in massive form, alloys, compressed gases etc.) listed in chapters 8 and 9 of Annex VI to Directive 67/548/EEC, for which there are labelling derogations.

For the lowest tonnage level, the standard requirements are in Annex V, and every time a new tonnage level is reached, the requirements of the corresponding Annex have to be added. For each registration the precise information requirements will differ, according to tonnage, use and exposure. The Annexes shall thus be considered as a whole, and in conjunction with the overall requirements of registration, evaluation and the duty of care.

STEP 1 — GATHER AND SHARE EXISTING INFORMATION
  NEEDS

The
  registrant(s)
  should gather all existing available test data on the substance to be registered.
  Potential registrants
  should
  share
  test
  data, thereby
  avoiding unnecessary testing and reducing costs. The
  registrant (s)
  should also collect all other available information on the substance. This should include alternative data (e.g. from (Q)SARs, read-across from other substances, in-vitro testing, epidemiological data) which may assist in identifying the presence or absence of hazardous properties of the substance and which can in certain cases replace the results of animal tests. In addition, information on exposure, use and risk management measures in accordance with Article 11 and Annex V should be collected. Considering all this information together, the
  registrant(s)
  will be able to determine the need to generate further information.

STEP 2 — CONSIDER INFORMATION NEEDS

The registrant shall identify what information is required for the registration. First, the relevant Annex or Annexes to be followed shall be identified, according to tonnage. These Annexes set out the standard information requirements, but shall be considered in conjunction with Annex IX, which allows variation from the standard approach, where it can be justified. In particular, information on exposure, use and risk management measures shall be considered at this stage in order to determine the information needs for the substance.

STEP 3 — IDENTIFY INFORMATION GAPS

The registrant shall then compare the information needs for the substance with the information already available and identify where there are gaps. It is important at this stage to ensure that the available data is relevant and sufficient to fulfil requirements.

STEP 4 — GENERATE NEW DATA/PROPOSE TESTING STRATEGY

In some cases it will not be necessary to generate new data. However, where there is an information gap that needs to be filled, new data shall be generated (Annexes V and VI), or a testing strategy shall be proposed (Annexes VII and VIII), depending on the tonnage. New tests on vertebrate animals shall only be conducted or proposed as a last resort when all other data sources have been exhausted.

In some cases, the rules set out in Annex V to IX may require certain tests to be undertaken earlier than or in addition to the standard requirements.

NOTES

Note 1: If it is not technically possible, or if it does not appear scientifically necessary to give information, the reasons shall be clearly stated, in accordance with the relevant provisions.

Note 2: The registrant may wish to declare that certain information submitted in the registration dossier is confidential. If this is the case, he shall list the items and provide a justification in accordance with Article 126.

ANNEX V

STANDARD INFORMATION REQUIREMENTS FOR SUBSTANCES MANUFACTURED OR IMPORTED IN QUANTITIES OF ONE TONNE OR MORE

Column 1 of this Annex establishes the standard information required for all substances manufactured or imported in quantities of 1 tonne or more in accordance with Article 13(1)(a). Column 2 of this Annex lists specific rules according to which the required standard information may be omitted, replaced by other information, provided at a different stage or adapted in another way. If the conditions are met under which column 2 of this Annex allows adaptations, the registrant shall clearly state this fact and the reasons for each adaptation under the appropriate headings in the registration dossier.

At the level of this Annex, the registrant must submit a proposal and a time schedule for fulfilling the information requirements of this Annex in accordance with Article 13(1)(a) where this involves tests on vertebrate animals.

In addition to these specific rules, a registrant may adapt the required standard information set out in column 1 of this Annex according to the general rules contained in Annex IX. In this case as well, he shall clearly state the reasons for any decision to adapt the standard information under the appropriate headings in the registration dossier referring to the appropriate specific rule(s) in column 2 or in Annexes IX or X.

Before new tests are carried out to determine the properties listed in this Annex, all available in vitro data, in vivo data, historical data, data from valid (Q)SARs and data from structurally related substances (readacross approach) shall be assessed first.

When, for certain endpoints, information is not provided for other reasons than those mentioned in column 2 of this Annex or in Annex IX, this fact and the reasons shall also be clearly stated.

Note: Conditions for not requiring a specific test that are set out in the appropriate test methods in Annex X itself that are not repeated in column 2, also apply.

ADDITIONAL STANDARD INFORMATION REQUIREMENTS FOR SUBSTANCES MANUFACTURED OR IMPORTED IN QUANTITIES OF 10 TONNES OR MORE

Column 1 of this Annex establishes the standard information required for all substances manufactured or imported in quantities of 10 tonnes or more in accordance with Article 13(1)(b). Accordingly, the information required in column 1 of this Annex is additional to that required in column 1 of Annex V. Column 2 of this Annex lists specific rules according to which the required standard information may be omitted, replaced by other information, provided at a different stage or adapted in another way. If the conditions are met under which column 2 of this Annex allows adaptations, the registrant shall clearly state this fact and the reasons for each adaptation under the appropriate headings in the registration dossier.

In addition to these specific rules, a registrant may adapt the required standard information set out in column 1 of this Annex according to the general rules contained in Annex IX. In this case as well, he shall clearly state the reasons for any decision to adapt the standard information under the appropriate headings in the registration dossier referring to the appropriate specific rule(s) in column 2 or in Annexes IX or X.

At the level of this Annex, the registrant must submit a proposal and a time schedule for fulfilling the information requirements of this Annex in accordance with Article 13(1)(b) where this involves tests on vertebrate animals.

Before new tests are carried out to determine the properties listed in this Annex, all available in vitro data, in vivo data, historical data, data from valid (Q)SARs and data from structurally related substances (readacross approach) shall be assessed first.

When, for certain endpoints, information is not provided for other reasons than those mentioned in column 2 of this Annex or in Annex IX, this fact and the reasons shall also be clearly stated.

Note: Conditions for not requiring a specific test that are set out in the appropriate test methods in Annex X itself that are not repeated in column 2, also apply.

ADDITIONAL STANDARD INFORMATION REQUIREMENTS FOR SUBSTANCES MANUFACTURED OR IMPORTED IN QUANTITIES OF 100 TONNES OR MORE

At the level of this Annex, the registrant must submit a proposal and a time schedule for fulfilling the information requirements of this Annex in accordance with Article 13(1)(c).

Column 1 of this Annex establishes the standard information required for all substances manufactured or imported in quantities of 100 tonnes or more in accordance with Article 13(1)(c). Accordingly, the information required in column 1 of this Annex is additional to that required in column 1 of Annexes V and VI. Column 2 of this Annex lists specific rules according to which the registrant may propose to omit the required standard information, replace it by other information, provide it at a later stage or adapt it in another way. If the conditions are met under which column 2 of this Annex allows an adaptation to be proposed, the registrant shall clearly state this fact and the reasons for proposing each adaptation under the appropriate headings in the registration dossier.

In addition to these specific rules, a registrant may propose to adapt the required standard information set out in column 1 of this Annex according to the general rules contained in Annex IX. In this case as well, he shall clearly state the reasons for any decision to propose adaptations to the standard information under the appropriate headings in the registration dossier referring to the appropriate specific rule(s) in column 2 or in Annexes IX or X

Before new tests are carried out to determine the properties listed in this Annex, all available in vitro data, in vivo data, historical data, data from valid (Q)SARs and data from structurally related substances (read-across approach) shall be assessed first.

When, for certain endpoints, it is proposed not to provide information for other reasons than those mentioned in column 2 of this Annex or in Annex IX, this fact and the reasons shall also be clearly stated.

Note: Conditions for not requiring a specific test that are set out in the appropriate test methods in Annex X itself that are not repeated in column 2, also apply.

ANNEX VIII

ADDITIONAL STANDARD INFORMATION REQUIREMENTS FOR SUBSTANCES MANUFACTURED OR IMPORTED IN QUANTITIES OF 1 000 TONNES OR MORE

At the level of this Annex, the registrant must submit a proposal and a time schedule for fulfilling the information requirements of this Annex
  that involve vertebrate animal tests
  in accordance with Article 13 (1)(d).

Column 1 of this Annex establishes the standard information required for all substances manufactured or imported in quantities of 1 000 tonnes or more in accordance with Article 13(1)(d). Accordingly, the information required in column 1 of this Annex is additional to that required in column 1 of Annexes V, VI and VII. Column 2 of this Annex lists specific rules according to which the registrant may propose to omit the required standard information, replace it by other information, provide it at a later stage or adapt it in another way. If the conditions are met under which column 2 of this Annex allows an adaptation to be proposed, the registrant shall clearly state this fact and the reasons for proposing each adaptation under the appropriate headings in the registration dossier.

In addition to these specific rules, a registrant may propose to adapt the required standard information set out in column 1 of this Annex according to the general rules contained in Annex IX. In this case as well, he shall clearly state the reasons for any decision to propose adaptations to the standard information under the appropriate headings in the registration dossier referring to the appropriate specific rule(s) in column 2 or in Annexes IX or X.

Before new tests are carried out to determine the properties listed in this Annex, all available in vitro data, in vivo data, historical data, data from valid (Q)SARs and data from structurally related substances (readacross approach) shall be assessed first.

When, for certain endpoints, it is proposed not to provide information for other reasons than those mentioned in column 2 of this Annex or in Annex IX, this fact and the reasons shall also be clearly stated.

Note: Conditions for not requiring a specific test that are set out in the appropriate test methods in Annex X itself that are not repeated in column 2, also apply.

The purpose of this Annex is to set out how downstream users are to assess and document that the risks arising from the substance(s) they use are adequately controlled during their use for a use not covered by the safety data sheet supplied to them and that other users further down the supply chain can adequately control the risks. The assessment shall cover the life-cycle of the substance, from its receipt by the downstream user, for his own uses and for his identified uses
  in quantities of 1 tonne or more per year
  further down the supply chain. The assessment shall consider the use of the substance on its own, in a preparation or in an article.

In carrying out the chemical safety assessment and producing the Chemical Safety Report, the downstream user shall take account of information received in the Safety Data Sheet from the supplier of the chemical in accordance with Article 33 of this Regulation. Where available and appropriate, an assessment carried out under Community legislation, (e.g. risk assessments completed under Regulation (EEC) No 793/93) shall be taken into account in the chemical safety assessment and be reflected in the Chemical Safety Report. Deviations from such assessments shall be justified. Assessments carried out under other international and national programmes may also be taken into account.

The process which the downstream user goes through in carrying out the chemical safety assessment and in producing his Chemical Safety Report, involves three steps:

Step 1: Development of exposure scenario(s)

The downstream user shall develop exposure scenarios for uses not covered in a safety data sheet supplied to him in accordance with Section 5 of Annex I.

Step 2: If necessary, a refinement of the hazard assessment by the supplier;

If the downstream user considers the assessments reported in the Safety Data Sheet supplied to him to be appropriate, then no further hazard assessment or PBT and vPvB assessment is necessary. In this case he shall use the relevant information reported by the supplier for the risk characterisation. This shall be stated in the chemical safety report.

If the downstream user considers the assessments reported in the Safety Data Sheet supplied to him to be inappropriate, then he shall carry out the relevant assessments in accordance with Annex I, sections 1 through 4 as appropriate to him.

In those cases where the downstream user considers that information in addition to that provided by the supplier is necessary for producing his Chemical Safety Report the downstream user shall gather this information. Where this information can only be obtained by testing on vertebrate animals, he shall submit a proposal for a testing strategy to the Agency in accordance with Article 40. He shall explain why he considers that additional information is necessary. While waiting for results of further testing, he shall record the risk management measures he has put in place.

On completion of any additional testing, the downstream user shall revise the Chemical Safety Report, and his Safety Data Sheet, as appropriate.

Step 3: Risk characterisation.

A risk characterisation shall be carried out for each new exposure scenario as prescribed in section 6 of Annex I. The risk characterisation shall be presented under the relevant heading of the Chemical Safety Report and summarised in the Safety Data Sheet under the relevant heading(s).

In these steps, iterations may be made between on the one hand developing new exposure scenario, which entails developing and implementing or recommending risk management measures, and on the other hand generating further information. The purpose of generating further information is to establish a more precise risk characterisation, based on a refined hazard assessment and/or exposure assessment.

The downstream user shall produce a Chemical Safety Report detailing his chemical safety assessment using part C, sections 5 and 6, of the format set out in Section 7 of Annex I and the other sections of this format, if appropriate.

Part A of the Chemical Safety Report shall include a declaration that the risk management measures outlined in the relevant exposure scenarios are implemented by the downstream user for his own uses and that the risk management measures outlined in the exposure scenarios for the identified uses are communicated down the supply chain.
