EU 2nd regulatory review of Nanomaterials - workshop (Brussels, January 2013)

An EU workshop was organised in Brussels in January 2013,  following the Communication on the EU 2nd Regulatory Review of Nanomaterials in October 2012. While NanoFATE did not input directly to the Review, Nina Schneider (SYMLOG) attended the discussion workshop and provided a Travel Report which handily summarises the issues and the proceedings. Consult this to get a good idea of stakeholders' 2013 positions on defining and assuring the safety of nanomaterials.
