Rapport in het kort
The notification of new substances has to take place in
accordance to the Dutch law concerning these new substances Act, the
Notification Decision, and the Guideline of the European Community
(79/831/EEC). In this report on "Evaluation Philosophy Development" the
possibilities are dealt with to perform a standardized risk evaluation based
on the data from the research reports available. In this sense standardized
means an evaluation as consistent and consequent as possible. A distinction
is made to the research subjects available at the different notification
levels. Therefore, at higher notification levels risks for more organisms
can be evaluated in one hand. In the other hand, also preliminary indicated
risks can be estimated more accurately because some effects of the
substances have been investigated in more detail.
