Cm Ser. : Safeguarding the Environment and Human Health

"We like other, are profoundly dissatisfied that after more than a century of chemicals production and decades of legislation attempting to deliver environmental safety from these chemicals, we still do not have a good understanding of the fate and effects of chemicals in the environment. We do not even have much information from which such an understanding might be derived. We have little faith that either the present regulatory system or the proposals coming forward to improve them will provide better answers in the future…The object of this report is top offer a new approach to chemicals assessment and management."
