Grant on supporting EFSA in preparing the guidance on endocrine disruptors (Endocrine Disruptoren)
Project
Project code: BfR-SiP-08-1341-107, GP/EFSA/PRAS/2017/01
Contract period: 01.03.2017
- 30.04.2018
Purpose of research: Applied research
In a letter addressed to both ECHA and EFSA, the European Commission (EC) requested both Agencies to develop a common Guidance Document for the implementation of the hazard-based criteria to identify endocrine disruptors (ED) in the context of Regulations (EC) No 1107/2009 and (EU) No 528/2012. According to the mandate from EC, ECHA and EFSA provided EC with an outline of the Guidance Document that was published in December 2016. The outline includes a detailed plan of the drafting process, timelines, responsibilities, the foreseen consultations with relevant parties and information on the background documents to be compiled during the drafting and consultation processes and to be published after the publication of the guidance document. According to the mandate, the draft Guidance Document must be produced in a very short time period. In order to fulfil the tasks allocated to EFSA and to ensure that the guidance is produced on time and according to the EFSA principles, the Pesticides unit has identified the need for getting additional support from BfR regarding two complementary tasks as described below.
