Can anyone tell me ( or point to a source of information ) what the current rules are
about which antifouling paint is permitted in the Netherlands.

I did google it but could only find that a ban of some type was instituted but later
overturned by an EU ruling.

Many thanks,

Andy

Thanks for the response. Unfortunately there is no info in there which says what is permitted.
In Holland, a 2.5 litre tin retails at approx £ 180 pounds. I have bought AF in the UK for
less than £ 50. I need two tins, so there is a serious difference in costs!

180 pounds for what antifouling? Most regular antifouling (i.e. suitable for salt water use) retails for around 100-150 euros for 2.5 litres. This amounts to around 90-130 pounds.
For getting an idea of what is permitted, just look at what's available in (Dutch) shops.

Here is a (partial but recent) list of antifoulings you are allowed to apply in the Netherlands as a non-professional:
