This means that the requirements established through these regulations will continue to apply in the UK. This includes retaining all exemptions that remain applicable, including chemicals used in medical products or equipment. By doing this we would minimise disruption to the supply in chemicals.</p><p> </p><p>While it would not be appropriate to pre-judge the outcome of negotiations regarding the Future Economic Partnership, we will discuss with the EU and Member States how best to continue cooperation in chemicals regulation in the best interests of both the UK and the EU.</p> answering member constituency Suffolk Coastal answering member printed Dr Thérèse Coffey question first answered 04/12/2018 16:40:38 answering member 4098 label Biography information for Dr Thérèse Coffey
