As outlined in All Approval Holder Letter 07/2004 information updates have replaced news updates as the means of notifying approval holders and interested parties of non-policy information such as details of training courses, workshops or seminars.
This is a list of information updates. Where no hyperlink is available, the information update has been removed from the web site as the document is out of date. If you require further details, please contact our information section (pesticides@hse.gsi.gov.uk)
Historical references to PSD: Where a reference to PSD was made in one of these updates, this has not been changed to CRD (the name for the organisation since 1st April 2009), since these documents are a record of communications sent out at a specific time in the past.
