Publication of GB mandatory classification and labelling (GB MCL) Agency Opinions

A GB MCL Agency Opinion formally proposes the GB mandatory classification and labelling for chemical substances, based on the scientific and technical assessment of the scientific data in line with the GB CLP Regulation, together with an assessment of the policy and socio-economic impacts on the UK.

It sets out whether there is adequate scientific evidence to support a new or revised GB MCL of a substance and what the potential impact of the proposed GB MCL may be.

 

The next batch of 7 GB MCL Agency Opinions are now available for download in the GB MCL publication table (.xlsx).

 

These GB MCL Agency Opinions relate to substances for which HSE (as the GB CLP Agency) published an Agency Technical Report under Article 37 of the GB CLP Regulation in May 2023.

 

At the time of publication, the classification and labelling proposed in this Agency Opinion has not been agreed and/or adopted in GB.

 

For information on the next steps in the process, please see our webpage on the GB MCL system.

 

We expect to publish our next batch of Agency Opinions in August 2024. CLP ebulletin alerts will be issued when Agency Opinions are published on the HSE website.
