New UK Regulatory Landscape

With the UK’s complete exit from the European Union, Common Market and Customs Union on 31 December 2020, 2021 brought with it a new legislative framework for cosmetic products and their ingredients.  CTPA was heavily involved in critical discussions with relevant UK authorities responsible for implementing the UK laws.  Emma will provide the latest information on the new UK Cosmetics Regulation, Schedule 34 of the Product Safety and Metrology Statutory Instrument, and UK REACH as well as highlighting the impact of the Northern Ireland Protocol on the supply of cosmetic products.  The presentation will also focus on the UK’s future chemicals strategy; touch on environmental claims; and update on the EU Cosmetic Products Regulation (1223/2009).
