Draft Commission Regulation (EU) amending Annex V to Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH).

Secondly, Annex V to Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 contains a list of substances exempt from the obligation to register in accordance with Article 2(7)(b) of that Regulation. Annex V should be amended to include an exemption for digestate which results from anaerobic digestion of organic material.
