7. GADSL developments. PACT substances.
Why are PACT Substances in focus for GADSL?
New developments need years of preparation, many time consuming tests etc.
When a part finally is ready for production it should be usable for the following years without redesign.
OEMs and suppliers have the need to know years before a possible restriction or prohibition
Agreement in GASG to use the EU REACH PACT substances as early warning system
Public Activities Coordination Tool, PACT
GADSL Developments | CLEPA Materials Regulations Event | 17th May 2017

8. GADSL developments. PACT substances.
REACH PACT substances “The Public Activities Coordination Tool, PACT gives advanced notice of substances that are on an authority’s radar…” Inclusion in the PACT means that a Member State or ECHA is examining the substance
Properties are expected to be cmr, pbt, sensitizer, endocrine disruptors
Assessment should give indication for follow up (regulatory) actions
Substances are not yet restricted for use due to GADSL listing! If not elsewhere regulated, PACT substances are not prohibited.

9. GADSL developments. PACT substances.
April 2017 : 371 substances and substance groups under review
EU GADSL Technical Team is selecting the GADSL relevant substances:
~ 110 already listed
~ 20 marked as “no further action needed” by ECHA
~ 180 already identified as not relevant (liquid, reactive…)
~ 50 proposals to add to GADSL
15 open evaluations (25 April)

10. GADSL developments. Enlarged Reach Candidate List.
REACH Candidate List contains substances with CAS numbers and substance groups without defined substance list behind. In addition in the dossiers more CAS numbers are listed! ACEA TF REACH created list of additional CAS’ for substance groups and the ones from the dossiers. GADSL Teams check the list for GADSL relevance.
