Secretariat invites comments on draft risk profile for PBDD/Fs and mixed PBCDD/Fs/PBCDFs under POPRC process (decision POPRC-21/6 information request)

The Stockholm Convention Secretariat invited Parties/observers to submit comments on the draft risk profile for polybrominated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PBDD/Fs) and mixed polybrominated/chlorinated dibenzo-p-dioxins and dibenzofurans (PBCDD/Fs), and requested information pursuant to decision POPRC-21/6. This is a POPRC scientific review step that can precede recommendations to list substances under the Convention; compliance teams should monitor outcomes for potential future listing and evaluate supply-chain presence where relevant.
