ES Request to Commissioner Kyriakides

February 24, 2021

To Commissioner Kyriakides:

On behalf of the Endocrine Society and our European Union EDC Task Force, I write to raise an issue related to the science of endocrine disruption which, in our view, could seriously impact the EU’s ability to protect public health by setting appropriate limits for EDCs. Upon review of recent draft opinions by the Scientific Committee for Consumer Safety (SCCS) and European Food Safety Agency (EFSA), we find that conclusions relevant to EDCs drawn in these opinions are not based on current science and could therefore result in less effective regulatory policies."
