These Regulations amend the Cosmetic Products (Safety) Regulations 2008 (S.I. 2008/1284) (“the Principal Regulations”) to give effect to Commission Directive 2008/14/EC (O.J. No. L42, 16.2.08, p.43) (“the Directive”). The Directive amends Council Directive 76/768/EEC (O.J. No. L262, 27.9.76, p.169) on the approximation of the laws of the Member States on cosmetic products. Council Directive 76/768/EEC (as previously amended) has been implemented by the Principal Regulations.
Paragraph (e) of regulation 2 amends Schedule 4 to the Principal Regulations (substances subject to restrictions and conditions) to include an entry for glyoxal. Paragraph (a) provides that products which fail to comply with this restriction may not be placed on the market after 15 November 2008 by EEA manufacturers or importers established in the EEA, and may not be sold or otherwise disposed of to a final consumer after 16 February 2009. Paragraph (c) adds the Directive to the list of Directives implemented by the Principal Regulations. Paragraphs (b), (d) and (f) correct errors in the Principal Regulations.
