ID	Subject of Evaluation	Public comment received	Public consultation outcome	Evaluation outcome
EVA00122	1H-Benzotriazole and its mono-substituted derivatives	Yes - Information on exposure and hazard; Other (use of read across)	A variation to the evaluation statement was required. Evaluation statement has been amended to include Australian use information. Minor amendments were made to the Evaluation statement to clarify the read-across approach for the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of Chemicals (GHS) classification. As the hazard information had already been considered, no change has been made to the GHS classification.	Recommendation to regulatory body (workers). Information relating to safe introduction and use.

EVA00163	Chemicals not considered for in depth evaluation – not commercially active in Australia	No public comment received – we identified new exposure information.	A variation to the evaluation statement was required. New information indicated use of some chemicals overseas, which resulted in a variation to the evaluation statement. The following chemicals were removed: Quaternary ammonium compounds, C12-14-alkyltrimethyl, chlorides (CAS No. 85409-24-1) Quaternary ammonium compounds, C16-24-alkyltrimethyl, chlorides (CAS No. 106233-03-8).	No new means of managing risk are proposed.

EVA00164	Chemicals that are unlikely to require further regulation to manage risks to environment	Yes - Information on exposure and hazard	A variation to the evaluation statement was not required. The exposure information provided did not indicate a higher risk exposure scenario compared with the assessed exposure scenario. As the hazard information had already been considered, no change has been made to the risk conclusions.	No new means of managing risk are proposed.
