"An EU committee has endorsed tough new laws on chemicals, against the
wishes of industry and European ministers."

May the Good Lord protect us from politicians!

As a footnote, I would encourage REACH if it were 100% global, backed by
the WHO and UNEP, but most certainly not parochially in just one part of
the world, where it would result in an economic catastrophe due to
non-competitiveness.
