Chemicals companies shift to EU regulation in no-deal survival plan
Brexit fears prompt more than 50 firms to move registrations away from the UK
The threat of a no-deal Brexit has prompted more than 50 chemicals companies to move regulatory approvals from the UK to the EU.
The companies, which have operations in the UK, have applied to use European Union regulators for critical authorisations to protect their ability to do business legally.
Their current authorisations will become worthless if there is no transition arrangement following 29 March, the planned date of Brexit, according to data provided to the Guardian by the European commission.
