  4. Interfaces EU/ Country/ Region/ Local • Legal interface  different approaches used for prioritisation of chemicals, precaution, risk assessment & risk management, monitoring…: • Understanding • Gaps and overlaps • Institutional interface  many institutions involved with different duties • “side by side” or cooperative and cross-linked • Information exchange

  5. New approach • Approach changes: • Industry – main responsible • “Command-control”  success control & cooperation • Sector specific view  holistic view • Challenging for both - authorities and industry! • Needs for capacity building • Important to realise also benefits and to get engaged in communication and cooperation beyond the own filed of expertiese!  only by doing

  6. Options • Legally binding rules • Awareness raising – workshops, info days... • Guidances, recomendations, check-lists • Horizontal and vertical working groups • Pilot cases  good practice (implementation, info access and use...) • Use of non-legally binding information • Info access (IT, help-desk) • .................................

  7.

(easily to be solved/ fundamental) • Are there different options for solutions? Which to choose? • What are the next steps/ options for solutions? (who, how)
