Anne Withall

Anne Withall started her career as a crop scientist working in fungicide R&D. She has worked in regulatory affairs – both for plant protection and biocides - for over 20 years. She has watched the Biocidal Products review process develop from the early days when the Directive 98/8/EC was first proposed to today, when everyone is using IUCLID and R4BP to make submissions under Regulation 528/2012.

Anne was one of the first to take AS and products through the Biocidal Products Directive and, given the short review timelines for rodenticides, she now finds herself in the same position with the new Regulation.
