REACH regulations. I wasted many hours in the MoD evaluating any potentialy nasty substances that were not only actually IN the stuff we were buying, but also which may have been used to make it. It got so bloody silly that I think that if a scientist's nappy had been washed in something that MAY have used something that MAY have been near something deemed nasty and had subsequently worked on something that we wanted, then we weren't to buy it! @tisthe age we live in.
"Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) is a European Union regulation dating from 18 December 2006. REACH addresses the production and use of chemical substances, and their potential impacts on both human health and the environment."
