New legislation continues to proliferate and
particularly affects companies that deal with the use, supply and carriage of
hazardous chemicals. In the last few years, significant amendments have been
made to the Carriage of Dangerous Goods Regulations, most recently with the consolidated
regulations CDG 2007 and the revised editions of ADR in 2007 and of IMDG in
2006 which necessitates continuous review of current practices. The supply regulations, CHIP, was last updated as CHIP3 in 2002 and
CHIP 3.1 in 2005 and an 8th edition of ASL was published in 2005;
the COSHH and NONS regulations have also been amended. CHIP and NONS are to
be superseded by REACH which will have a major impact; it will eventually
incorporate GHS (Globally Harmonised system of Classification and labelling
of Chemicals) which will affect the classification of chemicals for supply as
well as labelling and Safety Data Sheets.
