The Eighth Stakeholders' Day conference takes place in Helsinki on 26 March. The programme includes three plenary sessions: Registration and REACH 2013; evaluation and communication in the supply shain; as well as risk management and applications for authorisation. The day offers participants the chance to hear the latest news and updates from ECHA, European industry associations and NGOs through presentations, one-to-one and informal networking sessions. The deadline for registering is Tuesday 5 March. Participation to the conference is free of charge. ECHA stops translating its news alerts and press releases
Since spring 2010, ECHA has provided translations of most of its press releases and news alerts in 22 official EU languages. ECHA has reviewed this service and has found that in fact they are very seldom used. The Agency has therefore decided to discontinue this service as not representing best value for public money. This does, however, otherwise not affect ECHA's communication tools and products. The Agency will continue to translate most pages of its website and particularly all documentation that is of use to small companies and the general public, including Guidance documents, practical guides, and other useful information. Most of this information is currently available in 22 official EU languages and will also soon be provided in Croatian too. |
