This year the workshop focused on several regulatory hot topics impacting IFRANA members, including: GHS implementation in North America and Asia, the amendment of the Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), and international trade under the new administration. We are always looking for speakers and topics that are relevant to current regulatory issues. Attendees reported that the workshop was well worth their time and relevant to their position.
