Substances that are not recommended in a given round will be reassessed in the next rounds, along with the other substances on the Candidate List. They may be included in future recommendations.
The public consultation on ECHA's draft recommendation typically runs once a year.
ECHA publishes the comments submitted at the end of the public consultation. Responses to the comments are provided with the final recommendation.
EU traders always require businesses provide the information about the substances in the Authorisation List and Candidate List present in products. The data communication throughout the supply chain and product testing are important routes for REACH regulatory compliance.
