Overview
Partner Eléonore Mullier and associate Roman Spangenberg authored an article for the International Chemical Regulatory and Law Review titled "REACH Authorisation - Death by a Thousand Cuts". The authors analyze the recent Parliament v Commission judgment on chromium trioxide, in light of previous case law on the authorisation procedure under the Regulation on Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (‘REACH’). In addition the article explores the future of the authorisation procedure, in the context of the current REACH revision, and what it could mean for the Commission’s future new decision on chromium trioxide following the Parliament v Commission judgment.
