ECHA has just published its proposal for an updated Community Rolling Action Plan (CoRAP). This list includes 24 substances of concern (suspected endocrine disruptors, CMRs, PBTs, etc.) to be assessed by Member States under the REACH Regulation in 2023, 2024 and 2025. Among them, 7 can be used in cosmetics. The final plan will be adopted in March 2023.
This draft CoRAP contains 24 substances, including 6 new substances compared to the current CoRAP 2022-2024.
5 substances are being planned for evaluation in 2023, and 19 are divided for evaluation in 2024 and 2025.
The draft plan has been submitted on 30 November 2022 to the Member State Competent Authorities and the ECHA Member State Committee. The Committee is expected to give its opinion in February 2023. On the basis of the Committee’s opinion ECHA aims to adopt and publish the CoRAP update for 2023-2025 on 21 March 2023.
