Description: The New Zealand Environmental
Protection Authority (EPA) has published its decision on the reassessment of
chlorthal-dimethyl under the Hazardous Substances and New Organisms Act 1996.
The EPA has decided to revoke the approval for chlorthal-dimethyl containing
substances as the risks are considered to outweigh the benefits.
Chlorthal-dimethyl containing substances will cease to be approved immediately
from 15 December 2025 and may no longer be used in New Zealand from 18 December
2025.
