We have been working closely with scientific advisers at the Defence Science and Technology Laboratory and formerly at the Home Office Centre for Applied Science and Technology on the corrosive products and concentration limits set out in Schedule 1 of the Offensive Weapons Bill. A paper setting out the scientific advice we have received will be made available to Parliament by Committee stage of the Offensive Weapons Bill.
