"I was happy to support the resolution on endocrine disruptors. According to Regulation (EU) No 528/2012 of the European Parliament and of the Council concerning the making available on the market and use of biocidal products, the Commission, no later than 13 December 2013, shall adopt delegated acts specifying scientific criteria for the determination of endocrine-disrupting properties of active substances and biocidal products. In a report published by the UNEP/WHO, endocrine disrupters (EDCs) are considered as a global threat. I along with my colleagues condemned the Commission for its failure to comply with its obligation to adopt delegated acts, which are now more than two and a half years overdue. By doing this, the Commission has also failed to comply with its institutional obligations as laid down in the Treaties themselves, notably in Article 266 TFEU. Likewise, the ECJ declared that the Commission breached EU law by failing to act to adopt delegated acts to specify scientific criteria for the determination of endocrine-disrupting properties. This is worrying considering that the proposed scientific criteria were ready in 2013, but remained unpublished as the Commission decided to launch an impact assessment instead. I was happy that the Resolution called on the Commission to comply immediately with its obligations."@en1
