I used to have various books about laws like this and there were all sorts of penalties depending which parish you ended up in.
The one thing that makes “catch all” laws difficult for the UK is we do still have an active well respected chemical industry – often in small random places in the North with the companies owned by Singapore Chinese; as our chemists tend to be older; and not as reckless as 20 year old Chinese kids who would divert half the stuff to making hard drugs or worse, even ISIL etc if the money was right; or just “brow up entire prace to matchstick”. The boffins make all sorts of random stuff; its often things like paint or normal pharmaceuticals we take for granted.
It is bad enough with some of the regulations and paperwork regarding normal chemicals used in the electronics industry and general maintenance work.
passing “catch all” laws would mean even more stuff needs licenses, inspections, secure storage, paperwork etc and thus pushes up the cost of work not just for the pharm industry but every industry using chemicals. I suspect this is also why blended NPS remain tolerated as regulating them more could mean that companies who make things like drain cleaner incur extra costs to their businesses and the current UK governments are wary of creating a backlash by doing that.
