Directors' Contact Group meeting
On 4 June 2014, the Directors' Contact Group (DCG) held its second meeting under its new (third) Terms of Work.
Since its last meeting in January, the DCG has focused on the costs related to the mandatory data sharing needed to fulfil the information requirements of registration dossiers as they constitute one of the main cost factors for SMEs and other companies preparing for the 2018 REACH registration deadline.
At its meeting, the DCG adopted two best practice documents, namely:
-
A "Checklist to hire a good consultant, first edition", and
-
A document on "considerations to be made when joining an existing SIEF".
These documents have been published on ECHA's website and will be promoted by DCG members using their respective communication channels It will also benefit the downstream user manufacturing industry.
Over the last months, the DCG has also progressed on elaborating best practice advice on fair and transparent cost sharing in SIEFs as well as sound SIEF management. The DCG intends to adopt these documents at its next meeting.
