The management of the Letter of Access addresses the data provision and sharing requirements outlined in the EU REACH and REACH-like regulation. Nevertheless, effective data management is imperative in other contexts as well:
Firstly, test results for a specific substance may extend beyond that substance alone, potentially serving as "read across" data for related substances.
Secondly, the global push for chemical regulation underscores the necessity to provide and exchange data for inclusion in various international chemical inventories.
In both scenarios, a considerable level of administration and coordination is essential to facilitate data exchange while safeguarding the rights of study owners.
