If adopted this will see changes to the major regulatory bodies that deal with chemicals, including: the Ministry of Environmental Protection (MEP), State Administration of Work Safety (SAWS) and China Food and Drug Administration (CFDA).

    Under the proposal the MEP would be renamed the Ministry of Ecological Environment (MEE). And it would take more responsibility for ecological protection and environmental management of chemical substances in China.
