EUROPE'S NEW CHEMICALS POLICY HITS PACIFIC RIM RESISTANCE

BRUSSELS, Belgium, March 24, 2004 (ENS) - Key trading partners of the
European Union have expressed "serious concern" over possible trade
restrictions that might be slapped on Europe's draft chemicals policy.
Called REACH, for Registration, Evaluation and Authorization of
Chemicals, the proposal has drawn objections from industry and now from
Pacific Rim countries. Environmentalists say the draft policy needs to
be strengthened, not weakened.
