Israel in process of developing chemical regulation

Israel in process of developing chemical regulation
In Israel the use of industrial chemicals is only partially regulated. It now wishes to close the gap with the other advanced countries when it comes to information about chemicals and risk prevention. A law is being developed which intends to:
- Establish a chemical inventory 
- Require performance of a risk assessment for selected chemicals
- Restrict the use of certain chemicals and/or exposure to them.

The proposal is now open for public consultation, see here.
