ECHA’s Interact Portal – new collaboration channel for authorities launched
ECHA’s Interact Portal is a one-stop shop for Member State authorities and committee members to collaborate with each other and ECHA and to access process-specific information and tools relevant to their work.
For example, the portal provides authority users with easy access to tools such as REACH-IT, R4BP, ePIC and IUCLID. Members of ECHA’s scientific committees, advisers and rapporteurs can also access the Collaboration tool for the joint preparation of documents.
The Interact Portal replaces the previous portal dashboards for Member State competent authorities and national enforcement authorities. ECHA will continue to develop its features and functionalities for future releases.
