Brexit and What It Means For REACH and CLP Journal Artikel open-access Hartmut Scheidmann, Matthias Kottmann International Chemical Regulatory and Law Review, Jahrgang 1 (2018), Ausgabe 1, Seite 3 - 11 This article examines the consequences of the so-called Brexit in view of the EU regulatory regime on chemicals. Two years ago, a Member State leaving the EU was regarded by most as a merely theoretical scenario.
