To ask the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs, what assessment the Government has made of the potential merits of the UK staying aligned to the REACH chemical regulations after the UK leaves the EU.
Rebecca Pow
The Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs
The Government is committed to an ambitious, broad, deep and flexible economic partnership with the EU. We want a deal that allows us to be in control of our own laws. The details of this partnership, including the possibility of cooperation with relevant European Chemicals Agency, including on REACH, will be a matter for negotiation with the EU after we leave the European Union.
We are preparing for that negotiation and will work with a wide range of partners to ensure a successful outcome for UK business and citizens.
