Definitive regulation of those hair dye substances, on the basis of such evaluations, and its implementation into the laws of Member States will take place at the latest by the 31 December 2009. Therefore, their provisional use in cosmetic products under the restrictions and conditions laid down in Part 2 of Annex III thereto should be extended until 31 December 2009. |
(5) |
