New Update
Following an opportunity for any person, company or taskforce/consortium to support the active substance/product type combinations listed below in the EU Review Programme, no compliant notifications were received. This affects NI:
- Potassium dimethyldithiocarbamate (CAS 128-03-0 EC 204-875-1) in product types 9, 11 and 12
This active substance/product type combination will now be subject to an EU non-approval decision.
Once a decision is taken, biocidal products containing this active substance in the relevant product types will have to be removed from the NI market. HSE will provide separate updates on the decision and relevant phase-out periods.
If you are aware of any disproportionate negative effects that are likely to arise from the non-approval of any of the active substance/product type combinations listed above, please contact HSE GB.
