EU-28: Commission Roadmap for Endocrine Disruptors

  |   Attaché Report (GAIN)

Although this European Commission has already done a lot of work on endocrine disruptors, there remain many concerns regarding this issue. As a response to these concerns from the European citizens, as well as the political pressure, the European Commission recently published a roadmap entitled ‘Towards a more comprehensive EU framework on endocrine disruptors’. This roadmap should inform citizens and stakeholders about what the Commission has been doing so far. It also provides the opportunity to give feedback or comments in the form of a consultation, which is open until July 19, 2018.
