HSE will provide separate updates on the renewal decisions when relevant.
Make sure you are receiving important information about your product authorisations and approvals.
Businesses that hold product authorisations and approvals in Great Britain and Northern Ireland under the GB and EU Biocidal Products Regulations (GB BPR and EU BPR) or the Control of Pesticides Regulations (COPR) should make sure HSE has the right contact details.
If the details we hold are out of date, you may not receive important information about your product authorisation or approval.
Update your details.
