2 Key pre-requisites for development Draft federal law «On industrial policy in Russian Federation» Industry stimulation activities Best Available Techniques (BAT) Creation of industry federal information system Chemical management regulatory framework concept of development 2

3 Scope and aims Aims Scope of regulation relations Sustainable innovative development of industry Investment-attractive businesses Increase marketability of products Reduce negative impacts on human health and environment 3

4 Essential elements of chemical management regulatory framework 1. Regulated objects 2. Participants of regulatory system 3-4. Influences: National Priorities and International Activities Essential elements of chemical management regulatory framework 5. Parameters of regulation 6. Key procedures for control of regulated objects 7. Non-regulatory Mechanisms 8. Availability of National Data 9. Laboratory infrastructure 10. Response on emergency situations involving chemicals, including poisoning 11. Harmonization activities 4

5 1. Regulated objects Chemicals Industrial chemical Pesticides Chemical wastes Fertilizers Chemical market Petroleum products Consumer chemical Nanomaterials and composites Chemicals of global and/or national concern 5

6 2. Participants of regulatory system Ministries: Ministry of Industry and Trade, Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, Ministry of Agriculture, etc., other Governmental Organizations/Institutions Regulator Self-regulatory organizations Russian Chemists Union, Russian Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs (RSPP), Industry Research Centers and Institutes GOSNIIOKHT, FMBA, Chemical market Mechanisms to facilitate stakeholder participation Government Commission on the Biological and Chemical Safety, Government Commission on the Protection of Public Health 6

7 3-4. Influences: National Priorities and International Activities National priorities Regulator International organizations and fora National Priorities Principles of State Policy in the Sphere of Ensuring Chemical and Biological Security of the Russian Federation for the period up to 2025 and beyond Federal Target Programme on National System of Chemical and Biological Safety for Work in the International Organizations and Fora Chemical market International Organizations documents 7

8 5. Parameters of regulation International organizations and fora 1 Input data National priorities Regulator Chemical market IAS Monitoring Input indicators 3 data on the volume of production, export and import of chemicals 2 Indicators of condition concentration of pollutants in the atmosphere of cities Governance Indicators the difference between the number of prohibited and / or restricted chemicals in a particular country and other countries 8

9 6. Key control procedures for control of regulated objects International organizations and fora Regulatory and legal framework National priorities Regulator IAS national interstate - State registration: first introduced in production and previously unused chemicals Customs Union Commission Decision of 28 May , Section II - Socio-hygienic monitoring Regulation Input data Chemical market Monitoring Federal Law 52 of ban / restriction of chemicals Rotterdam Convention, Montreal Protocol - BAT Federal Law «On protection of chemicals» (as modified by Federal Law of N 219-FZ) - 9

10 Draft. TR CU On the Safety of Chemical Products CU TR On Chemicals Safety requirements Register of Chemicals of the Customs Union Properties Information on their prohibition, restriction or authorization of their use Registration of chemical products Notification of new chemical substances Classification and labelling of chemicals, Russian Safety Passport (GHS) Further detalisation of existing norms and introduction of new ones in the second-tier documents and other legislative acts On the procedure of opening and maintaining the Register of Chemicals of the CU On the notification of the new chemical substances 10

11 On the procedure of opening and maintaining the Register of Chemicals of the CU Register of Chemicals of the CU (Register) Register of the RF Register of the RB Register of the RK It is planned that the Register will be formed of the bases of existing Registries and Data Bases of the CU Member countries, data obtained in the process of notification of the new chemical substances and registration of chemical products Inventories of chemical substances of chemical products prohibited or restricted chemicals Register will contain: Data bases Chemical properties Producers/importers Safety Passports (incl. RSP) 11

12 On the notification of the new chemical substances CU Technical Regulation On the Safety of Chemical Products «new chemical substances should be notified before release for circulation of chemical products containing such chemical substances» Data presented should include: Chemical Safety Report Identification data Data on phys-chemical, toxicological and ecotoxicological properties of chemical substances Intended uses and etc On the notification of the new chemical substances (under development) Procedures, deadlines, document forms used in the notification procedure List and volume of the data to be requested in the notification procedure Issues of confidentiality and rights to use the data submitted in the notifications 12

13 Implementation of GHS in Russia and CIS countries Draft. TR CU On the Safety of Chemical Products Interstate standards Information sharing GOST «Chemical product safety passport. General requirements» GOST «Labelling of chemicals. General requirements» (with GOST 2007) GHS Implementation Interstate standards OECD testing: Developed in 2013: 62 standarts Developed in 2014: 4 standarts Will be approved in Dec. 2014: 13 standarts Will be approved in 2015: 25 standarts Standartdization Plan for 2015: 3 standarts Physico-chemical property testing: 12 GOST R и 1 GOST Guidance on the composition of chemical product safety passport with GOST Guidance on the selection of precautionary statements for the labelling in accordance with GOST Interstate standards Classification GOST «Classification of chemicals. General requirements» GOST «Mixtures classification of hazard for health» GOST «Mixtures classification of hazard for environmental» GOST «Classification of chemicals for environmental hazards.
