Recital 20
(20) IAs a preventive measure, information exchange, shared responsibility and cooperative efforts between the Union and the Member States and third countries should be promoted with a view to ensuring sound management of chemicals, whether or not those third countries are Parties to the Convention. In particular, technical assistance to developing countries and countries with economies in transition should be provided directly by the Commission and the Member States, or indirectly via support for projects by non- governmental organisations, especially assistance seeking to enable those countries to implement the Convention and prevent chemicals having any harmful effects on human health and the environment.
