"A degree of caution is required when it comes to the commercial transfer of chemicals between countries as they pose risks to the population as well as the environment. However, all the Commission’s proposal for amending the PIC (prior informed consent) Regulation is going to do is give producers of chemicals banned or restricted by the EU the opportunity to sell their products in countries which have clear-cut legislation on these transactions. We cannot allow it and I disagree that the ignorance of the governments of all the countries facing this situation should endanger people’s health. The only point I welcome in this proposal is the clarification of the definitions in the regulation and the involvement of the ECHA (European Chemicals Agency) in enforcing it. However, I think that it is absolutely imperative to restrict the departures from the PIC procedure allowed by the Commission, so as to fulfil the European Union’s duty to help create partnerships that are fair and beneficial to all the parties and states involved."@en1
