(b)in the case of a substance which is a dangerous substance, request the competent authority to require the European Commission to enter it in ELINCS in the form of its trade name until such time as that substance has been introduced into Annex I of the Directive; and in either case the competent authority shall accede to that request.
(2) In a case in which—
(a)a request had been made in accordance with sub-paragraph (a) of paragraph (1); and
(b)the notifier considers that the publication of the chemical name in the IUPAC nomenclature itself could reveal information concerning the commercial exploitation or manufacture of the substance,
