DEPARTMENT OF THE ENVIRONMENT

CONSULTATIONS ON THE ADDITION OF CHRYSOTILE ASBESTOS TO THE PIC PROCEDURE OF THE ROTTERDAM CONVENTION

The Government of Canada is undertaking consultations to obtain the views of Canadians on the potential addition of chrysotile, a form of asbestos exported by Canada, to the Prior Informed Consent (PIC) procedure of the Rotterdam Convention on the Prior Informed Consent Procedure for Certain Hazardous Chemicals and Pesticides in International Trade.

At an international meeting to be held in September 2004, participating countries will be asked to decide, by consensus, whether they agree or not to the inclusion of chrysotile on the list of chemicals subject to the requirements of the PIC procedure. Canada therefore needs to develop a position on this issue and to ensure that this position takes into account the potential impacts of the inclusion or non-inclusion of chrysotile under the PIC procedure.

The Rotterdam Convention, a multilateral environmental agreement to which Canada is a Party, is based on the principle that export of a chemical covered by the Convention can only take place with the prior informed consent of the importing party. The Prior Informed Consent procedure of the Convention sets out the process for formally obtaining and disseminating the decisions of importing countries as to whether they wish to receive future shipments of specified chemicals and for ensuring compliance with these decisions by exporting countries.

Listing a chemical under the PIC procedure means that it will be subject to information exchange, priority attention for national decisions about imports and obligations related to export controls. Decisions taken by a country regarding the imports of a chemical listed under the PIC procedure are to be trade neutral. This aims to prevent the use of the PIC regime to protect domestic products from external competition. This is achieved through the Convention's provisions that any bans or restrictions on imports of PIC chemicals must be accompanied by parallel bans or restrictions on production for domestic use.

Canada has a well-articulated domestic regime for the management and controlled use of chrysotile in Canada. These consultations are not designed to review Canada's domestic policy on the risk management of chrysotile. They are meant to gather the views of Canadians on the following questions related to the addition of chrysotile to the PIC procedure of the Rotterdam Convention:

1. What impacts, if any, do you foresee if chrysotile becomes subject to the PIC procedure?

2. What impacts, if any, do you foresee if Canada opposes the addition of chrysotile to the PIC procedure?

3. How could these potential impacts be addressed?
