HEAL, EEB, ChemTrust comments to the Commission proposal on new REACH information requirements for endocrine disruptors

HEAL, together with the European Environmental Bureau (EEB) and ChemTrust, has submitted joint comments to the Commission proposal on new REACH information requirements for endocrine disruptors.

The proposal was presented on 18 February 2025 in a Joint Meeting of REACH and CLP Competent Authorities, Subgroups on Information Requirements and Endocrine Disruptors.

HEAL, EEB and ChemTrust strongly support updating the information requirements for the identification of EDs. However, the current proposal still leaves many open questions, uncertainties and loopholes which should still be addressed.

In the submission, the organisations also urge the Commission to support an overall EU test methods and validation strategy so that the regulatory uptake of test methods and discussion on regulatory decisions on different (and more predictive) evidence including from grouping, read-across and QSAR modelling will be addressed in a more systematic way.
