The Globally Harmonised System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) provides a harmonised basis for globally uniform health and safety information for hazardous chemical substances and preparations. It was developed at UN level. The Commission Services Directorate-General (DG) Enterprise and DG Environment have drafted a proposal for a Regulation which would introduce the GHS criteria into Community law. In accordance with the Commission’s commitment to better regulation, the Commission Services are undertaking a public consultation on this draft proposal. Interested parties are invited to participate in this consultation and to give comments and answers to the questions set out in an online-questionnaire.
