Notes

1. These Schedules set out the Schedules of Chemicals in the annex on chemicals to the Convention as corrected.

2. In these Schedules the reference to the CAS is to the chemical abstract service registry.

3. These Schedules must be read subject to the following proposition, which is based on a note in the Convention: where reference is made to groups of dial-kylated chemicals, followed by a list of alkyl groups in parentheses, all chemicals possible by all possible combinations of alkyl groups listed in the parentheses must be taken to be listed in the Schedules.
