Report on indicators to monitor environmental and health benefits of the EU chemicals legislation published

FoBiG, together with Öko-Institut and Risk & Policy Analysts (RPA), supported the Directorate General for the Environment (DG ENV) of the European Commission in developing indicators to monitor environmental and health benefits of the EU chemicals legislation. While developing such indicators encounters several problems, the recently published report of this project provides in-depth analyses of several possible indicators and concludes for each of them whether they should be pursued in the future, may have some potential in the future or should not be considered further. Among other topics, FoBiG contributed a concept to this report that allows analysing measured data with respect to their suitability to be used for indicators development.
