PROPOSALS TO ADDRESS ISSUES FROM THE PROGRAMME OF WORK FOR THE PRACTICAL CLASSIFICATION ISSUES CORRESPONDENCE GROUP / TRANSMITTED BY THE EXPERT FROM THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA ON BEHALF OF THE INFORMAL CORRESPONDENCE GROUP ON PRACTICAL CLASSIFICATION ISSUES
Rationale:
(a) Classification based on existing human eye data is not possible since such data are
not available;
(b) Classification via application of substance criteria in GHS Table 3.3.1 and Table
3.3.2 is not possible since existing animal data are not available;
ST/SG/AC.10/C.4/2012/25
10 GE.12-24566
(c) Test results derived using the BCOP test method indicate Mixture A is a corrosive or
severe eye irritant.
(...) Example 4 is an updated version of the example submitted in document
ST/SG/AC.10/C.4/2010/15 that explains and illustrates the two interpretations of the GHS
criteria with respect to whether classification should always be based on the summation
method whenever information on the classification categories of the ingredients of an
untested mixture is available, or whether it is preferable to make the maximum use of actual
data on the toxicity of the ingredients through use of the additivity formula when both
toxicity data and aquatic hazard classification information are available.
(...) For example, the European Union guidance
document on the application of the GHS-criteria as implemented in the EU Classification,
Labelling, and Packaging (CLP) Regulation states that the information on classification
categories of the ingredients should be used to apply the summation method and where
classification on the ingredients are available the additivity formula should not be used.

REPORT OF THE SPECIAL RAPPORTEUR ON ADEQUATE HOUSING AS A COMPONENT OF THE RIGHT TO AN ADEQUATE STANDARD OF LIVING, AND THE RIGHT TO NON-DISCRIMINATION IN THIS CONTEXT, RAQUEL ROLNIK : ADDENDUM
In Argentina, the right to adequate housing has constitutional rank.10 The amended
Constitution of 1949 recognized the social function of private ownership and the right to
housing, but only within the framework of the welfare of workers and senior citizens.
(...) A/HRC/19/53/Add.1
GE.11-17535 7
new article 14 bis, under which the right to adequate housing was specifically recognized,
in the context of social security benefits granted by the State, and access to decent housing
was required to be guaranteed by law.11
14. Under the 1994 constitutional reform (Constitution, art. 75, para. 22), the Covenant
— and thus the right to adequate housing — acquired constitutional rank, as did a number
of other international human rights treaties, and was considered to supplement all the rights
recognized under the Constitution.
15. The right to adequate housing has, furthermore, been specifically recognized in local
legislation, in particular in the constitutions of eight provinces (Chaco, Chubut, Córdoba,
Formosa, Rio Negro, Salta, Santa Cruz and Tierra del Fuego, Antártida e Islas de Atlántico
Sur) and in the constitution of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires.

REPORT OF THE SPECIAL RAPPORTEUR ON FREEDOM OF RELIGION OR BELIEF, HEINER BIELEFELDT : ADDENDUM
The
assumption that social and economic factors should be taken into account for a more
comprehensive picture of the situation of freedom of religion or belief seems generally
plausible.
IV. Recognition and registration issues
22. While article 2 of the Constitution of Jordan accords Islam an elevated status as the
official religion of the State, Christian denominations are also recognized by the State. (...) Instead, applications for
recognition or registration should be decided by the administration on the basis of
transparent criteria applicable to all groups, without discrimination.
25. (...) The positive interrelatedness of both
norms has also found recognition in the Rabat Plan of Action on the prohibition of
advocacy of national, racial or religious hatred that constitutes incitement to discrimination,
hostility or violence.6 While setting a high threshold for restrictive measures against
extreme forms of hate speech, which have to meet a number of precisely defined criteria to
be legitimate, the Rabat Plan of Action emphasizes the need for “alternative speech”.

Dilution bridging principle example
The purpose of this example is to illustrate how the dilution bridging principle criteria can
be applied. While this specific example uses acute toxicity data, the reader is reminded that
the dilution bridging principle can be applied to other hazard classes as prescribed in the
purple book.
(...) Batching bridging principle example
The purpose of this example is to illustrate how the batching bridging principle criteria can
be applied. While this specific example uses specific target organ toxicity – single dose
data, the reader is reminded that the batching bridging principle can be applied to other
hazard classes as prescribed in the purple book.
(...) Aerosols bridging principle example
The purpose of this example is to illustrate how the aerosols bridging principle criteria can
be applied. While this specific example uses skin corrosion/irritation data, the reader is
reminded that the aerosols bridging principle can be applied to other hazard classes as
