Description

A Council document transmitting a European Committee of the Regions (CoR) opinion warns against repealing or suspending the SCIP database (and related hazardous substance information obligations) unless and until a fully functional and interoperable Digital Product Passport (DPP) system is operational and provides at least the same level of traceability, accessibility, and enforcement capacity across the EU. This is not a binding DPP rule change, but it is an official policy/implementation signal connecting DPP system readiness to potential changes in existing product traceability information systems, relevant for compliance teams planning data-system transitions and continued SCIP support until DPP infrastructure is proven ready.
