There is NO one agreed upon source for GHS classifications and
GHS H/P
phrases for chemical substances. This is a topic for discussion at the UN
GHS
meeting in July.
Besides the EU, New Zealand has published GHS classifications and H/P
phrases for substances - searchable on-line.
Japan has also published GHS classifications and H/P phrases for subs
tances
- downloadable in English.
NITE -
Chemical Management Field - Information about the status of implementation
of
GHS in Japan
The EU, New Zealand and Japanese GHS lists do not all agree.
