What is being done?
Introduction
Following the conclusions of the Weybridge Report and those
of the SCTEE, it became imperative that the European Commission
takes action to address the potential problems posed by endocrine
disrupters (EDs).
In 1999, following consultation with stakeholders from across the
EU, the Commission adopted the 'Community strategy for endocrine
disrupters' (COM(1999)706).
This strategy focused on short, medium and long-term actions that,
when implemented, would contribute to ensure a better environment
and health of people within the Union.
