EU: Call for evidence for use of certain phthalates in articles
ECHA and the Danish Environmental Protection Agency have launched a call for evidence to identify the current uses of the phthalates DEHP, DBP, BBP and DIBP in articles (e.g. packaging materials), the phthalate content and migration rates, as well as other relevant information for the preparation of an Annex XV restriction dossier. The call is to support their joint work to investigate the need for a restriction on the placing on the market of articles containing the four phthalates. Interested parties are invited to respond by 24 June 2015. This call for evidence does not replace the public consultation organised by ECHA at the start of any restriction process (ECHA e-News, 29 April 2015).
