TEXT

In 1988 the process of incorporation into the internal system of the Community acquis on cosmetic products is initiated in Spain. In our country, the free movement of these products in the single European market became a reality, eliminating the previous administrative interventionism, while guaranteeing the health and safety of consumers and users by establishing a series of technical limitations in the composition of cosmetics, as well as the information that should be made available to the authorities and the general public.

This Royal Decree seeks to collect all the regulations on cosmetic products, consisting of the Royal Decrees 349/1988 of 15 April; 475/1991 of 5 April, and 1415/1995 of 4 August, and 15 Ministerial Orders and, at the same time, transposing Council Directive 93 /35/EEC of 14 June amending for the sixth time Council Framework Directive 76 /768/EEC on the approximation of the laws of the Member States relating to cosmetic products, as well as Commission Directives 95 /17/EC, on the exclusion of one or more several ingredients in the list of products for the labelling of cosmetic products, and 97 /18/EC, for which the date from which animal experiments are prohibited for ingredients or combinations of ingredients for cosmetic products is postponed.

This provision is based on the exercise of the powers that Law 14/1986 of 25 April, General of Health, confers, in its Article 40.2, 5 and 6, to the State Administration to determine, respectively, the health requirements of the technical-sanitary regulations of food, services or products directly or indirectly related to human use and consumption; the regulation, authorization, registration and approval, as appropriate, of medicinal products for human and veterinary use and other medical products and articles of those who, by affecting the human being, may pose a risk to the health of the persons; and the regulation and authorization of the activities of natural or legal persons engaged in the preparation, manufacture and manufacture of the products mentioned.

In the same sense, Law 25/1990 of 20 December of the Medicamento, in its additional provision tercera.2, establishes that the Government may determine, among others, cosmetic products whose clinical investigation and use, where appropriate, must be authorized, approved or certified by the State, in view of their special risk or importance to health.

Likewise, Law 26/1984 of 19 July, General for the Defence of Consumers and Users, in Article 2 thereof, points out among the basic rights of consumers protection against risks which may affect their health or safety; Articles 3 and 13 ensure the protection of consumers against foreseeable risks and determines the obligation of correct information on consumer products, respectively; and Articles 4 and 28 (1) and (2) thereof, specifies the content of the regulatory regulations, guarantees of purity, efficacy or safety and liability for damage caused by the use or consumption of products, which are applicable to cosmetics.

On the other hand, the Royal Decree 1907/1996 of 2 August 1996 on advertising and commercial promotion of products, activities or services with intended health purpose, which prohibits any kind of direct or indirect advertising or promotion, massive or individualized, which attribute to cosmetic products properties other than those recognized for such products, according to its special regulations, is prohibited.

Among the novel aspects introduced by this Royal Decree, it is worth noting the information to be provided by those responsible for placing the health authorities on the market for the purpose of rapid and appropriate medical treatment in the event of a nuisance; the obligation to reflect on the labelling the ingredients used in the cosmetic product; the technical memory to be produced by the companies and to keep at the disposal of the health authority; and the prohibition, as from 30 June 2000, to place cosmetic products containing ingredients on the market or combinations of ingredients experienced in animals. It also highlights the possibility for manufacturers to request, for reasons of commercial confidentiality, the exclusion of one or more of the ingredients in the labelling of cosmetic products.

This Royal Decree is issued pursuant to the provisions of Article 149.1.16. a of the Constitution, in conjunction with article 40.2, 5 and 6, of Law 14/1986, of 25 April, General of Health, and with the additional provision third of Law 25/1990, of 20 December, of the Medicamento.

Interterritorial Council of the National Health System has issued a favorable report on this Royal Decree and in its preparation have been heard the sectors affected.

In its virtue, on the proposal of the Minister of Health and Consumer Affairs, in agreement with the Council of State and after deliberation of the Council of Ministers at its meeting on October 17, 1997,

DISPONGO:

Confidentiality

Article 17. Confidentiality of ingredients.

1. Cosmetic products on whose labelling, for reasons of commercial confidentiality, may be placed on the market in Spain shall be replaced by the name of one of its ingredients, the registration number granted by a Member State, in accordance with Annex IX.

2. To this end, the Ministry of Health and Consumer Affairs, through the Directorate-General of Pharmacy and Health Products, will recognize the decisions on confidentiality adopted by the authorities of the other Member States, and may request a copy of the file that includes the request for confidentiality and the decision of the competent authority of the Member State that granted the confidentiality. However, after having become aware of this information, the Directorate-General for Pharmacy and Health Products may challenge a decision taken by the competent authority of another Member State, requesting the Commission of the European Union to adopt a decision in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 10 of Directive 76 /768/EEC.

3. The Directorate-General for Pharmacy and Health Products shall also communicate to the Commission of the European Union and to the other Member States the decisions it takes on the granting or extension of the right to confidentiality, indicating the name or social reason and the address or registered office of the applicants, the names of cosmetic products containing the ingredient for which confidentiality has been granted, and the number of registration granted.

It shall also inform the Commission and the other Member States of their reasoned decisions for refusal or withdrawal of the granting of confidentiality or of refusal of the extension of confidentiality.

4. In the case of decisions on commercial confidentiality, account shall be taken of:

(a) The assessment of safety for human health of the ingredient as used in the finished product (s) taking into account the toxicological profile, the chemical structure and the level of exposure of the ingredient under the conditions specified in paragraphs (d) and (e) of paragraph 1 and Article 6 (2) of this provision.

b) The intended use of the ingredient and, in particular, the different categories of products in which it will be used.

c) The justification for the reasons why confidentiality is requested exceptionally, for example:

1. The fact that the identity of the ingredient or its function in the cosmetic product to be marketed is not described in any publication and is not known for science in its current state.

2. The fact that the information is not yet in the public domain, even if a patent has been applied for the ingredient or its use.

3. The fact that if the information was known it would be easily reproducible to the detriment of the applicant.

The decision granting the right to confidentiality will last for five years and may be extended for justified reasons for a maximum period of three years.

5. The person responsible for placing on the market who wishes to benefit from the exclusion of an ingredient in the labelling of cosmetic products shall be required to document the aspects referred to in paragraph 4 of this Article and shall also provide:

a) The precise identification of the ingredient for which confidentiality is requested, namely:

1. The name INCI, the CAS numbers, EINECS, and Colour Index, the chemical name, the IUPAC name, the name of the European Pharmacopoeia, and the name of the international common nomenclature of the World Health Organization.

2. The name ELINCS and the official number assigned to it in the event of notification under Royal Decree 363/1995 of 10 March, approving the Regulation on new substances and classification, packaging and labelling of dangerous substances, as well as the indication of the granting or refusal of confidentiality on the basis of this Royal Decree.

3. The names and numbers referred to in paragraphs 1. and 2., for example, in the case of certain ingredients of natural origin, shall be given the name of the basic material, the name of the part of the plant or animal used, the names of the ingredients of the ingredient, such as solvents.

(b) If the name of each product containing the ingredient is known and if different names are to be used on the Community market, precise indications on each of them.

If the name of the product is not yet known, it may be reported later, but this communication must be made at least 15 days prior to the marketing.

In case the ingredient is used in several products, it will be sufficient for a single application, provided that these products are clearly indicated to the competent authority.

(c) A declaration specifying whether an application has been submitted to the competent authority of another Member State in relation to the ingredient for which confidentiality is requested and information on the results of that request.

6. The decisions shall relate to a single ingredient, specifying the cosmetic products in which it is to be used on the Community market.

Such decisions shall be taken within a period not exceeding four months from the date of submission of the documentation referred to in paragraphs 4 and 5 of this Article and shall be communicated to the person concerned together with the registration number assigned to the ingredient. This period may be up to two months, when exceptional circumstances are present, informing the person concerned.

7. The refusal of decisions in matters of confidentiality shall be reasoned, and may be brought by the person concerned, the corresponding ordinary appeal within one month in accordance with Articles 114 et seq. of the Law on the Legal Regime of Public Administrations and the Common Administrative Procedure.

8. All modifications to the data provided must be communicated as quickly as possible to the Directorate General of Pharmacy and Health Products. In the case of changes in the name of cosmetic products in which the ingredient is integrated, they must be notified to the Directorate-General for Pharmacy and Health Products at least 15 days before they are placed on the market under their new names.

Depending on the modifications mentioned above or if new elements so require, in particular for imperative reasons of public health, the General Directorate of Pharmacy and Health Products may withdraw the grant of confidentiality. In this case, it shall inform the applicant of its decision within the time limit referred to in paragraph 6 and with the guarantees laid down in paragraph 7 of this Article.

CHAPTER VII
