Key Evidence Withheld as "Trade Secret" in EU's Controversial Risk Assessment of Glyphosate

Key Evidence Withheld as "Trade Secret" in EU's Controversial Risk Assessment of Glyphosate



 Companies who make the pesticide glyphosate refuse to disclose key
scientific evidence about its possible risks in the name of trade
secrets protection. We call on the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA)
to disclose all the possible original elements of three key scientific
studies it used in assessing glyphosate. We also call MEPs to reject the
Trade Secrets Directive in the upcoming vote on the final text. Thanks
