4. A solution?
Can we build a portal to facilitate access to our data – like a subscription or
license?
E.g. ‘Amazon’ or ‘I-Tunes’ for data

6. Quality and Compliance Conundrum
Quality
1) the quality of the studies cf. Reliability
2) the quality of the data reporting in the IUCLID dataset
3) the relevance of data for the endpoint to be addressed
4) The justification / support for any adaptations
Compliance
Does information submitted address the requirements?
Quality Compliance
• Expert judgement
• Subjectivity / Ambiguity
• Perspective - Registrants vs
Authority

We want people and the environment to be safe when handling and using
chemicals
But we also need
An economically viable, functional and responsible industry
This can only be accomplished with
- Better access to reliable data
