Host Päivi Jokiniemi is joined by Katinka van der Jagt, Chair of the Member State Committee, alongside two of the committee's national members, Katarzyna Malkiewicz from the Swedish Chemicals Agency KEMI, and Agnieszka Dudra from the Polish Bureau for Chemical Substances.The European Union, a partnership of 27 countries, is committed to building a safer and healthier future. ECHA’s Member State Committee exemplifies this commitment by bringing together representatives from all EU member states to reach consensus on key chemical safety decisions. Throughout the episode, our guests talk about the unique aspects of the Member State Committee, discussing its tasks, responsibilities, and the collaborative nature of its decision-making process. They highlight the importance of science-based decisions, transparency, and the committee’s role in promoting the substitution and minimisation of harmful substances.Key topics:Committee voting procedure and its impact on committee collaborationGeneration of experimental data for industrial chemicals and its significance in identifying hazardous substancesIdentification of substances of very high concern, particularly those with endocrine-disrupting propertiesNational perspectives on chemical safety priorities and how they influence committee decisionsImportance of science and legal frameworks in resolving divergences and achieving consensusFuture challenges, including emerging chemical concerns like nanomaterials, neurotoxicity, immunotoxicity, and the development of non-animal testing methodsUseful linksGive us feedback (https://ec.europa.eu/eusurvey/runner/podcast_feedback)Member State Committee - who we are (http://echa.europa.eu/about-us/who-we-are/member-state-committee)Member State Committee - meeting agendas and minutes (https://echa.europa.eu/about-us/who-we-are/member-state-committee/meetings-of-the-member-state-committee/2024)**************Subscribe to our YouTube channel (https://bit.ly/321VQgE)Subscribe to our Safer Chemicals Podcast (https://echa.europa.eu/podcasts)Subscribe to our news (https://echa.europa.eu/subscribe)Follow us on:Twitter (https://twitter.com/EU_ECHA)Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/EUECHA/)LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/company/european-chemicals-agency)Visit our website (https://echa.europa.eu/) Disclaimer: Views expressed by interviewees do not necessarily represent the official position of the European Chemicals Agency.
