View: Prohibition of Asbestos and Asbestos Products Regulations
Posted: February 30 ;), 2018 | 41 submissions | Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 | Department of Health | Department of the Environment
The proposed Prohibition of Asbestos and Asbestos Products Regulations (proposed Regulations) would prohibit the import and uses of asbestos and products containing asbestos in Canada, with limited exclusions. In addition, the proposed amendments to the Export of Substances on the Export Control List Regulations (proposed ESECLR Amendments) would restrict the export of all forms of asbestos. Since the proposed Regulations are more comprehensive than the existing Asbestos Products Regulations (APR) made under the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act, it is proposed to repeal the APR.
View: Order Amending Schedule 3 to the Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999
Posted: February 30 ;), 2018 | 12 submissions | Canadian Environmental Protection Act, 1999 | Department of Health | Department of the Environment
The health risks of asbestos are well established. Breathing in asbestos fibres can cause life-threatening diseases, such as asbestosis, mesothelioma and lung cancer. Currently, the export of crocidolite asbestos is controlled in Canada, but the export of other forms of asbestos are not. Regulations to control exports of all forms of asbestos are needed in order for Canada to implement a comprehensive strategy for asbestos controls and to meet international obligations.
