Latest updates to the Australian Inventory of Industrial Chemicals
During the months of December 2023 and January, February, and March 2024, the Australian Industrial Chemistry Introductory Scheme (AICIS) has made several updates to the Australian Inventory of Industrial Chemicals (AIIC). The updates include the addition of new chemicals to the inventory and variations to inventory listings following evaluation. Details of the updates are summarised below.
Latest snapshot of AIIC available
On 2 January 2024 the AICIS that the latest AIIC snapshot is available and can be downloaded as a spreadsheet in Excel format here. The AICIS aims to publish a downloadable version of the inventory twice a year.
Chemicals added to the Inventory following issue of assessment certificate (early listing) (I)
On 5 March 2024, the AICIS issued a notice adding six chemical substances to the AIIC following the issuance of early listing assessment certificates. This is in accordance with Section 83 of the Industrial Chemicals Act 2019. Details of the substances are shown in the two tables below.
