The Canadian Government has recently published its Proposed Plan of Priorities which outlines its upcoming priorities to manage substances that may have a harmful effect on the environment or human health. There are several nanomaterials that have been listed within this plan:
- Nanoscale silver (nAg; CAS RN 7440-22-4)
- Nanoscale zinc oxide (nZnO; CAS RN 1314-13-2)
- Nanoscale forms of nickel oxide (nNiO)
- Nanoscale forms of titanium dioxide (nTiO2)
The Proposed Plan and the details of the consultation can be found here. Members who wish to provide comments on the Proposed Plan of Priorities to help the NIA contruct its feedback can send them to Blanca (blanca.suarez@nanotechia.org) by 22 November.
