• Regulation (EU) no. 2019/1148 on the marketing and use of explosives precursors

  It aims to prevent the illegal production of explosives and lays down rules throughout the EU regarding the making available, introduction, possession and use of certain substances and mixtures.

  The Regulation restricts the availability and use of the nine substances ("restricted" explosives precursors) listed in Annex I to the general public (natural persons). However, it allows the general public to have access to these substances through a licensing and registration system. Operators who manufacture or import and trade in Annex I substances in such a way that they can also be made available to the general public must label these substances accordingly. Legal entities (economic operators) can continue to procure and use these substances without restrictions.

  In addition to that limitation, the Regulation stipulates that economic operators must report to the competent authority in their country all suspicious transactions, disappearances and thefts of substances in Lists I and II. List II contains a list of substances that are not restricted but also pose a certain risk for the purpose of the Regulation (explosives precursors listed in Annex II).

  National provisions implementing Regulation (EU) No 98/2013 is defined by the Decree on the implementation of the Regulation (EC) on the marketing and use of explosives precursors (Official Gazette of the Republic of Slovenia, Nos. 28/2016 and 54/2017). The bodies responsible for its implementation are the Office of the Republic of Slovenia for Chemicals and the Police, and supervision is also performed by the Financial Administration of the Republic of Slovenia.
