Public health protection from endocrine disruptors

This procedure addresses the risks posed by endocrine-disrupting chemicals (EDCs) to public health. It calls for stronger EU measures to identify and regulate these substances, which can interfere with hormone systems and potentially cause developmental, reproductive, and other health issues.

The focus is on protecting vulnerable populations, particularly children and pregnant women. It urges the European Commission to propose legislation for stricter risk assessment and management of EDCs across various products and environmental exposures.
