Article 9
Evaluation of hazard information for substances and mixtures
1. Manufacturers, importers and downstream users of a substance or a mixture shall evaluate the information identified in accordance with Chapter 1 of this Title by applying to it the criteria for classification for each hazard class or differentiation in Parts 2 to 5 of Annex I, so as to ascertain the hazards associated with the substance or mixture.
2. In evaluating available test data for a substance or a mixture which have been obtained from test methods other than those referred to in Article 8(3), manufacturers, importers and downstream users shall compare the test methods employed with those indicated in that Article in order to determine whether the use of those test methods affects the evaluation referred to in paragraph 1 of this Article.
3. Where the criteria referred to in paragraph 1 cannot be applied directly to available identified information, manufacturers, importers and downstream users shall carry out an evaluation by applying a weight of evidence determination using expert judgement in accordance with section 1.1.1 of Annex I to this Regulation, weighing all available information having a bearing on the determination of the hazards of the substance or the mixture, and in accordance with section 1.2 of Annex XI to Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006.

MODIFIED +431 −3,135 Annex VIII HARMONISED INFORMATION RELATING TO EMERGENCY HEALTH RESPONSE AND PREVENTATIVE MEASURES§
applies from: unchanged
Sources disagree — the text comparison found this change; the EU's own amendment metadata does not list it and the amending act's instructions do not mention it. All are shown; none is overruled.
References to distributors acting under Article 45(1b) and (1c) are removed throughout Part A, so the obligations in sections 1.1 to 1.5 and 2.1 now name only importers and downstream users as the actors placing mixtures on the market.
Section 2.4's closing sentence drops the former point (6) defining a composition conforming with a standard formula, and section 3.1's third subparagraph removes the added text about standard-formula components remaining notifiable even at a 0% range, simplifying the notification-of-absent-components rule to depend only on interchangeable component group or range submission status.
Section 3.6's heading changes from referring to a mixture's composition conforming with a standard formula to referring to mixtures complying with standard formulas, section 4.1 drops the closing indent about other changes relevant for emergency health response, and Part C section 1.4 removes the standard formula name and product description line while section 1.2 restructures the product identifier and standard formula/fuel name entries; the standard formula tables in Part D are relabelled from "Standard formula name" plus a separate number line to a single "Cement Standard Formula – [number]" heading.
