The European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) has just launched a user survey on how it publishes non-confidential information on chemical substances. The aim is to identify the needs for information on substances in the regulatory processes.
“On its Information on chemicals pages, ECHA aims to provide transparency on the Agency’s regulatory activities by making available information collected and produced under several chemical regulations and related processes,” the ECHA explains.
Earlier this year, the Agency ran a survey focused on how we make available data from registration dossiers and on the classification of substances.
As a follow-up to this work, it is currently exploring ways to present regulatory process information in a useful manner. To understand its stakeholders and their specific needs better, it launched an survey on the way ECHA disseminates this information. The stated aim is to improve the current system.
The scope of the survey covers regulatory outcome lists and information on planned, on-going, and completed regulatory activities.
The survey will be open until November 18th, 2022.
