On February 4, 2025, Australia published a list of assessment statements for 12 new industrial chemicals under Section 37 of the Industrial Chemicals Act 2019. Following the review of applications, Australia will determine whether to issue assessment certificates based on the ability to effectively manage potential risks to human health and the environment. If a decision is made to grant the certificates, the corresponding assessment statements will be publicly available on the Australian Industrial Chemicals website. The specific details are as follows:
