<p>At the end of the Transition Period the UK will have its own independent chemicals
regulatory framework, UK REACH. We will bring REACH in to UK law and put in place
the systems and capacity to ensure the effective management and control of chemicals
which safeguard human health and the environment, and can respond to emerging risks.
UK REACH will retain the principles and fundamental approach of the EU REACH system,
with its aims of ensuring a high level of protection of human health and the environment,
as well as enhancing innovation and competitiveness.</p><p> </p><p>We want to provide
industry with as much continuity as possible as we transition to UK REACH. As we will
have our own independent chemicals regime we would be legally obliged to take our
own decisions although there are no plans to actively diverge from EU REACH.</p>
