In order to ensure that appropriate safeguards are in place to secure the protection of human biomonitoring data constituting personal data, the EEA should only provide anonymised human biomonitoring data to the ECHA for incorporation in IPCHEM and the common data platform. IPCHEM, currently operated by the Commission, gathers occurrence data on chemicals in different media, including water, soil, indoor and outdoor air, biota, food and feed, humans and products. In order to take advantage of the incorporation of various information systems and to ensure that occurrence data on chemicals are made available for use together with the other chemicals data, the ECHA should take over the operation of IPCHEM from the Commission and incorporate IPCHEM in the common data platform as one of its main dedicated services.
