Synergy by coordinated inspections
The project has been carried out in cooperation between the environmental agencies of the local authorities and the Swedish chemical inspectorate, KemI. The local authorities inspect superstores and that will be followed up by KemI, inspecting the suppliers. So far, around 19 000 products has been inspected in over 440 different stores. There were lots of products not properly labelled.
This shows indeed that both GHS and Reach, that I described yesterday, are needed. Reed more about the project at www.kemi.se
