Chemical Safety Authority needed in India

It is good to note that a Civil Aviation Authority is being set up by the Govt. to address safety issues in aviation.As per a news article, "the proposed CAA, which would have administrative and financial autonomy, is also likely to keep a tab on the entire range of activities —from proper provision of air traffic services and licensing to financial fitness of airlines.Government plans to bring in a legislation to establish the CAA. Bhushan said the CAA would have a "lot of financial, administrative and procedural independence. We will be able to recruit (professionals) directly" instead of routing it through the Union Public Service Commission".
On a similar line, it would be good if a Chemical Safety Authority  on the lines of the Chemical Safety Board of the USA is set up in India. Read the article about the Civil Aviation Authority  in this link.
