Rwyf wedi rhoi caniatâd ffurfiol i Ysgrifennydd Gwladol yr Amgylchedd, Bwyd a Materion Gwledig osod Rheoliadau REACH (Diwygio) 2023 yn Senedd y DU. Mae'r offeryn statudol hwn yn ymestyn y terfynau amser trosiannol ar gyfer cofrestru cemegau presennol gyda'r Awdurdod Gweithredol Iechyd a Diogelwch (HSE) gan fusnesau Prydain Fawr yn dilyn Gadael yr UE, o dair blynedd. Pwrpas yr estyniad hwn yw galluogi adolygu a diweddaru y rheolau ar gofrestru, er mwyn lleihau'r costau i fusnesau a darparu data mwy defnyddiol i reoleiddwyr Prydain. Mae'r terfynau amser ar gyfer gwirio coflenni cofrestru gan yr HSE hefyd yn cael eu hymestyn.
I have given formal consent to the Secretary of State for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs laying the REACH (Amendment) Regulations 2023 in Parliament. This statutory instrument extends the transitional deadlines for the registration of existing chemicals with the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) by GB businesses following EU Exit by three years. The purpose of this extension is to enable the rules on registration to be reviewed and updated, both to reduce the costs to businesses and to provide more useful data to GB regulators. The deadlines for the checking of registration dossiers by the HSE are also being extended.
