ECHA finally allows Only Representatives to submit C&L notifications.
6 May 2012, The European Commission has finally announced that Only Representatives (ORs) appointed under the REACH Regulation are now permitted to submit group C&L notifications on behalf and in the name of the manufacturers/importers that are part of the group. This update is of particular importance to non-EU companies who wish to keep their ingredient information confidential. This news is also important to EU importers because they might not need to do C&L notifications by themselves any more.
