Explanation of the new Regulation (EU) 2019/1148 on explosives precursors

This webinar, given by Mariano Alessio Vernì of SILC Fertilizzanti Srl, will provide a brief over view of the requirements and implications of this new EU legislation that comes into force on 1 February 2021.

The presentation will cover the differences between the Reg. (CE) 98/2013 and the new one; and the definitions and role of the “economic operators” within the supply chain. Note that these potentially include manufacturers, importers, wholesalers, cooperatives, dealers, distributors, professional end-users and hobby-sector.

The webinar will also cover how to inform the various players within a supply chain; the types of substances and products listed in Annexes I and II (practical examples) of the regulation; the Customer’s Statement (Annex IV); how to manage availability of these products on the market, their possession and their use; post-sale verification and reporting of suspicious transactions, disappearances and thefts to the EU national authorities. It will also highlight practical consequences of this new regulation for the market.

Please note that, in relation to regulatory matters, the IFS and its invited speakers cannot and do not provide advice. This webinar will provide an overview of the regulation, its requirements and implications for the industry in general.
