This document is the Guidance on the harmonised information relating to emergency health response. It is a comprehensive technical and scientific document on the implementation of Article 45 and Annex VIII to Regulation (EC) No 1272/2008 on the classification, labelling and packaging of substances and mixtures (CLP), as amended. CLP is based on the Globally Harmonised System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) and is implementing the provisions of the GHS within the EU. CLP now has relevance for European Economic Area (EEA) countries (i.e. it is implemented in the EU countries and in Norway, Iceland and Liechtenstein). The objective of this document is to provide detailed guidance on the obligation to submit to Member State’s responsible bodies relevant information on hazardous mixtures placed on the market for formulating preventative and curative measures in case of accidents. The guidance is developed to primarily assist companies placing hazardous mixtures on the market in complying with their obligations. It is also intended to be a support tool for the appointed bodies in the Member States.

The Partnership for Assessment of Risk from Chemicals (PARC) provides a forum for collaboration across Europe between scientists and regulators and aims to pioneer scientific areas addressing most urgent regulatory challenges. In 2023, ECHA published a first map of its key areas of regulatory challenge with the aim to inform and inspire the PARC community developing research of most regulatory relevance. For this 2025 update, we introduced new topics in line with our developing mandate, such as topics to support our future work under the Drinking Water and Water Framework Directive. We also added key topics related to circularity, such as the valuation of chemical-related environmental impacts and releases at the waste stage. In addition, we updated our existing research priorities, particularly in the areas of endocrine disruption, persistence, and the characterisation of polymers. Other topics have received updated status information compared to 2024.
