Following the declaration made by the European Ombudsman Emily O'Reilly, on the 15th of September 2015, who claimed that ECHA should be more involved in ensuring that companies use animal testing only exceptionally, and as a last resort, ECHA now wishes to frame and control animal testing on vertebrate animals.
The decision applies to all testing proposals involving vertebrate animals. ECHA intends to publish those proposals as well as the alternative methods proposed by companies on its website. The agency asserts that the alternatives should help to avoid using animal testing. ECHA also requires companies to prove that those alternative methods do not jeopardize the objectives of human health and environmental protection held by REACH Regulation.
In its Press Release on the 2nd of November, ECHA also announced that a Consultation with Member States and Stakeholders has started. It concerns the further practical ways to implement the European Ombudsman's recommendations, and aims to enable companies to submit their considerations in their next REACH Registration files, following the update of IUCLID in 2016. In the meantime, registrants will be contacted through REACH-IT.
The decision has been long-awaited, especially by stakeholders like PETA UK (People for the Ethical Treatments of Animals) which filed a complaint in 2012, to which the European Ombudsman regretted that the ECHA�s interpretation of its duties, under article 25 of REACH Regulation, was "unnecessarily restrictive".
