Summary: | REACH is currently one of the EU's most far-reaching pieces of proposed legislation. The political goals of this proposal are: the protection of human health and environment, the maintenance of the competitiveness of European Chemical industry and to prevent a break-up of the single

follow these demands. The special situation of chemical industry in Switzerland, as a non EU country – will be discussed.
