Not in every listWhat this means
Found in the text, but not every source lists it — the text comparison found this change; the EU's own amendment metadata does not list it. The source that does not name it is the EU's own amendment metadata. Both are shown; neither is overruled.
Explanation, written by a model and checked against the cited text
The paragraph on the tonnage-based exemption from reporting now refers to a substance used on its own or in a mixture, whereas the earlier version referred to a substance used on its own or in a preparation.
