Post European Parliament Environment Committee (ENVI) Vote

Following the result of the vote in the European Parliament’s Environment (ENVI) Committee on October 10th on REACH, Orgalime (in conjunction with ACEA & ASD), wishes to raise serious concerns on the outcome since the delicate balance between REACH objectives (to which we are fully committed) and competitiveness (formally achieved by the Council), has been compromised.
