Scientific or technical information and/or wider policy and impact considerations should be submitted using the HSE commenting webform by 14 June 2024. Comments will be published on HSE's website.
Anyone with relevant information is encouraged to share it with HSE. Relevant information includes scientific or technical information relating to the proposed classification, as well as information on the potential impacts of the classification (positive and negative).
If your business is affected by the GB CLP Regulation, please consider if you are likely to be affected by any of the classification and labelling proposals and submit information if you anticipate any significant impacts or benefits.
For further information on what to submit during the public consultation, please visit the GB MCL webpages on the HSE website.
Under the GB CLP Regulation, HSE will consider all public consultation submissions before publishing Agency Technical Reports and Agency Opinions, so any information you provide will be important in any final GB MCL decision.

The GB MCL process includes the consideration of information gathered from public consultations, conducted by HSE or international bodies such as ECHA.
ECHA has announced a public consultation on the following proposal for harmonised classification and labelling (CLH):
-
propyl [3-(dimethylamino)propyl]carbamate monohydrochloride; propamocarb hydrochloride (EC: 247-125-9; CAS: 25606-41-1). Pesticide active substance. All hazard classes open for commenting.
View the consultation on the ECHA website
UK-based businesses with an interest in the proposal are strongly encouraged to share any relevant information.
Scientific and technical information should be submitted directly to ECHA using their commenting webform by 24 May 2024. Comments will be published on ECHA's website.
If your business is affected by the GB CLP Regulation, please also consider if you are likely to be affected by the classification and labelling proposal and let us know at an early stage if you anticipate any significant impacts or benefits.
Information on wider policy and impact considerations can be submitted to HSE at: GBCLP.GBMCL@hse.gov.uk.
Under the GB CLP Regulation, HSE will consider all published opinions of the Committee of Risk Assessment of ECHA (RAC) before publishing its own Agency Technical Reports and Agency Opinions, so any information you provide will be important in any final GB MCL decision.
More information on the new GB MCL system is available on the HSE website.
