ECHA was created by REACH itself: the regulation’s official title is “Regulation (EC) No 1907/2006 … concerning the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH), establishing a European Chemicals Agency…”. The agency and the procedures were made in the same instrument, which is why ECHA’s remit tracks REACH so closely.

Sourced to the establishing regulation rather than to ECHA’s own “who we are” page, which states an aspiration rather than a founding fact. The full list of laws ECHA administers is not cited here.
