<p>Tris (1-chloro-2-propyl) phosphate (TCIPP) is also known by its regulatory process
name, tris (2-chloro-1-methylethyl) phosphate (TCCP).</p><p> </p><p>The Environment
Agency worked with chemical authorities in the Republic of Ireland to initially assess
the risks of TCPP in 2008. The potential environmental and human health risks of TCPP
in products and other objects are currently being considered by the European Chemicals
Agency (ECHA) and European Union member state scientists. Subsequently, building on
a greater body of evidence, the ECHA, supported by Danish and German work are evaluating
the properties of this substance and considering a legal restriction on it.</p><p>
</p><p>Further information on this is expected soon and will help identify the chemical
properties and environmental risks from TCPP in products like furniture.</p>
