Article 127N Registrations under Article 127L and Article 127MX1F1
Articles 127L and 127M are to be read in accordance with paragraphs 2 to 5.
A registration under Article 17 or 18 of EU REACH (as the case may be) has a current connection with Great Britain if—
the registrant immediately before IP completion day is a person established in Great Britain (a “current GB registrant”), and
a registration of the substance concerned by the current GB registrant is a registration of a kind that could be submitted on IP completion day under Article 17 or 18 (as the case may be) of this Regulation.
A registration under Article 17 or 18 of EU REACH (as the case may be) has a relevant past connection with Great Britain if—
the registrant at any time in the period beginning with 29 March 2017 and ending immediately before IP completion day was a person established in Great Britain (a “former GB registrant”), and
a registration of the substance concerned by the former GB registrant is a registration of a kind that could be submitted on IP completion day—
under Article 17 of this Regulation if the former GB registrant was the manufacturer of the on-site intermediate concerned on IP completion day, or
under Article 18 of this Regulation if the former GB registrant was the manufacturer or importer of the transported isolated intermediate concerned on IP completion day.
Where a registration that has a current connection with Great Britain has effect as a registration with the Agency by virtue of Article 127L or 127M, the current GB registrant becomes the registrant in relation to the registration with the Agency on IP completion day.
Where a registration that has a relevant past connection with Great Britain has effect as a registration with the Agency by virtue of Article 127L or 127M, the former GB registrant becomes the registrant in relation to the registration with the Agency on IP completion day.
If two or more persons have been former GB registrants at different times in the period beginning with 29 March 2017 and ending immediately before IP completion day, only the person who was the former GB registrant most recently before IP completion day is to become the registrant in relation to the registration with the Agency by virtue of this paragraph.
