Part 1
Part One gives a list of those substances scheduled in Tables I and II of the 1988 Convention. The list is divided into two sections, the first listing those substances included in Table I, and the second listing those substances in Table II. English, French and Spanish names as used in the respective versions of the Tables of the 1988 Convention are given, as well as Harmonized System (HS) codes and Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) registry numbers, to facilitate rapid identification of all scheduled substances. The full Chemical Abstracts Index name of each substance is given also for reference purposes.Part 2
