Commission adopts change to first compliance date for reporting to poison centres

The European Commission has adopted a delegated act amending the CLP Regulation, which will postpone the first compliance date for harmonised reporting to poison centres, for mixtures intended for consumer use, from 1 January 2020 to 1 January 2021. Other compliance dates will not be affected.

The same amendment also introduces a few changes to how the information should be provided.

The adoption is followed by a two-month period of scrutiny by the European Parliament and Council.
