Key Points Analysis of EU Chemicals Risk Management and Risk Assessment.

In 2011, in the process of implementing REACH in the European Union, the European Chemicals Agency (ECHA) launched the Community Rolling Action Plan (CoRAP), which regularly updates and publishes the CoRAP assessment list of chemicals in March each year, including the names of the chemicals to be evaluated, the member countries and the completion time of evaluation. In 2019, based on the rich practical experience gained through REACH and CLP, EHCA released the first Integrated Regulatory Strategy to accelerate data collection of chemicals, promote environmental risk assessment and grouping management of Substances of Very High Concern, in order to develop the most suitable risk control measures. The EU is committed to promoting the concept of global sound management of chemicals, and continuously revising the REACH and CLP during the implementation process, to ensure the green and sustainable development of the EU chemical industry while also to protect human health and environmental safety. In May 2022, China issued the Action Plan on Controlling New Pollutants, which requires to conduct risk assessment on a batch of chemicals. Studying the latest chemicals risk assessment management approaches in EU has important reference value for supporting the chemicals environmental risk assessment in China. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
