Summary of evidence and Expert Committee recommendations
Following the review of square box listings on the EML and EMLc, the Committee recommended removal of the square box from the listing for chlorine-base compound, and that the listing be amended to specify the different recommended formulations to provide greater clarity and guidance for countries. This recommendation will result in powder, liquid and solid formulations of chlorine-based compounds, (at concentrations of 0.1% available chlorine) being specifically described as alternatives.
