ECHA adopted the updated Community rolling action plan (CoRAP) for the years 2020, 2021 and 2022. It includes a total of 74 substances to be evaluated, 27 of which may be used in cosmetic products, and incorporates very few changes compared to the proposal that was published by ECHA in October 2019.
The Community rolling action plan (CoRAP) update for the years 2020 – 2022 lists 74 substances for evaluation by the Member State competent authorities under the substance evaluation process of the REACH Regulation (EC) No.1907/2006 (Articles 44 to 48).

The substances are distributed for evaluation in years 2020, 2021 and 2022 between 17 Member States. In 2020, 14 substances are to be evaluated by seven Member States. In 2021 and 2022, it is planned to evaluate 32 and 28 substances, respectively.
