The EU commission has proposed a strategy for a future Chemicals
Policy, whereby some 100,000 different chemicals will be tested
on animals.
DLRM condemns this strategy as being totally irresponsible,
since these animal tests are notoriously unreliable and extremely
cruel.
Dr Claude Reiss, an international scientific expert in the
field of toxicology, will explain why the sophisticated methods
available today are scientifically far more reliable than
animal tests.
A press conference will take place on Wednesday, 3rd
October 2001. Further information from the DLRM press office:
