Smart enforcement tackles chemical industry (UK)

After the food industry (see previous post), the chemicals industry is benefitting from the Focus on Enforcement campaign, with more effective, less burdensome enforcement of regulation. Following a government-led consultation with the sector, new measures are announced in a press release dated 6 Feb. "Reforms include plans to integrate inspection regimes, provide greater support to companies who are considering growing their business, and to set out more transparent appeals mechanisms. This will help provide firms with greater certainty and more efficient regulation, enabling them to plan more effectively and concentrate on meeting business objectives."
