Monitoring
Illustrative projectWatching 4 measures behind the statuses
- Status: To review
Environmental omnibus, COM(2025) 986
On 24 June 2026 the Council agreed its position, which keeps the plan to end SCIP notifications. Rechecked, every notification is still required.
EU POPs Regulation, listing of MCCPs
RoHS exemption 6(c), lead in copper alloy
ECHA restriction intention, aromatic brominated flame retardants
What we need from you
Four things, shared at setup before the project starts.
Your products
Your bill of materials, or your products and the parts in them.
Your supplier data
Declarations and test reports for the parts you buy in, where you have them. Where a supplier hasn’t declared, Foresight lists the question to ask them.
Your SCIP notifications
Any notifications you’ve already made, so each one is updated rather than started again.
Your approver
The person who agrees the article breakdown and approves the register.
What teams ask about this project
Why check each part rather than the whole product?
Because the 0.1% applies to each article in a product, not to the product as a whole. The Court of Justice confirmed this in 2015, in case C-106/14, and the principle is often called “once an article, always an article”. A flame retardant at 12% of a driver’s enclosure stays above 0.1% when the driver goes into a luminaire, so both need notifying.
Where does the evidence come from?
From the measures themselves: ECHA’s Candidate List, REACH, the Waste Framework Directive and the regulators’ own guidance, alongside your suppliers’ declarations and test reports. Every status links to its source, so your team can check the wording directly.
Who checks the register before we use it?
The person you name. They agree the article breakdown before any checking starts, and check each status against its source at the end. Nothing is final until they approve it. These checks reduce the risk of error without removing it.
What happens when a rule changes?
When ECHA adds a substance to the Candidate List, or a restriction or exemption moves, Foresight rechecks the articles it affects. The register your expert approved stays as it is until they accept the change.
Isn’t the SCIP duty being dropped?
Not yet. The Commission proposed ending it in December 2025 and the Council agreed its position on 24 June 2026, but Parliament has still to vote. Until a change is adopted and takes effect, the duty stands. Your duty under REACH Article 33 to tell customers about Candidate List substances above 0.1% isn’t part of the proposal.
What does it cost?
The price follows how many products and parts the register covers. You see it with the scope, before any checking starts.
