In this week's episode of the Chemical Watch News Podcast, North America reporter Julia John, Europe desk editor Luke Buxton and publishing manager Henry Tipping join global managing editor, Kate Lowe, to discuss the latest developments.
The subjects under discussion include the European Commission’s publication of two comprehensive "inception impact assessments" on the actions planned under the EU chemicals strategy, which pave the way for potentially significant changes to REACH and CLP.
We’ll also hear about the findings of the latest annual Chemical Watch survey into chemicals management across the globe.
But we start the podcast with the US and the latest action at state and federal level to control the use of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs), which are the subject of increasing regulatory activity across the globe.
