EcoMundo’s advice to succeed in your authorisation application
Recommendations for your authorisation dossier
- The substance entered Annex XIV of REACH for its toxic for reproduction properties
- As the substance does not have a threshold, the "Socio-economic Analysis" route will be chosen. This analysis will have to show that the benefits related to the granting of the authorisation outweigh the risks associated.
- Whether the substance works with a threshold or not is not determined for these endocrine disruptors.
- In addition to the CSR and Analysis of Alternatives, the applicant will have to conduct a socio-economic analysis for the dossier.
- The preferred methodology to conduct the socio-economic analysis of the authorisation application is the cost/benefit analysis.
- Key elements of a successful authorisation dossier:
- A specific request with the most elements possible in relation to your activity
- Transparence and realism of the hypotheses and data as all elements produced will be challenged by the committees or stakeholders
- The “applied for use” and “non-use” scenarios are essential for the relevance of the socio-economic analysis
Recommandations de planning
- The creation of a dossier is usually between 6 and 18 months depending on the complexity of the dossier (intrinsic properties of the substance, complexity of the applicants’ value and production chain.
- The Latest Application date for this substance is 04/01/2019, the last submission window is on November 2018.
- It is therefore recommended to start the creation of the dossier immediately (september 2017).
