As outlined in All Approval Holder Letter 07/2004 Regulatory Updates have replaced all approval holders letters as the means of notifying approval holders and interested parties of changes to application procedures, the approvals process and of changes to legal requirements for Approval Holders.
Where the updates are still current they may be accessed from the list below. Where no hyperlink is available, the letter has been removed from the web site as the document is out of date. If you require further information, 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Historical references to PSD: Where a reference to PSD was made in one of these updates, this has not been changed to CRD (the name for the organisation since 1st April 2009), since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.
