Based on potential public health risks, an initial report has been prepared and submitted to the Commission and the Member States, in accordance with Article 9 of Regulation (EU) 2023/1322. Its purpose is to provide scientific evidence to the Commission to allow it to make an informed decision regarding whether or not there is a need to request a risk assessment on a new psychoactive substance.
