Appendix

Aspects relevant to the REACH Regulation

Relevant annexes and processes related to the REACH Regulation have been cross-

checked to clarify:

▪ In what cases granting an exemption could “weaken the envi ronmental and health

protection afforded by Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006” (Article 5(1)(a), pg. 1)

▪ Where processes related to the REACH regulation should be followed to understand

where such cases may become relevant in the future;

Compiled information in this re spect has been included, with short clarifications where

relevant, in the following tables:

Table A-1 lists those substances appearing in Annex XIV, subject to Authorisation, which

are relevant to the RoHS substances dealt with in the requests evaluated in this project.

As can be seen, at present, exemptions have not been granted for the use of these

substances.
