Swiftly phase-out harmful chemicals and revise REACH to close existing gaps in the legislation and to better protect health and the environment, in line with the Chemicals Strategy for Sustainability.

Promote greater knowledge and understanding of chemicals used in production processes and found in consumer products, fostering a toxic-free circular economy.

Ensure that climate, biodiversity and pollution actions are addressed holistically. I will make sure that EU efforts to reduce carbon emissions and energy use and eliminate toxic chemicals complement each other, advocating for a coordinated legislative approach.

Back the phase out of all-non-essential uses of forever pollutants, recognising their long-term impact on health and the environment.

Support comprehensive provisions for access to justice, remediation and compensation for individuals affected by chemical pollution and ensure polluters are held accountable.

Advocate for the EU industry to lead on innovation by substituting the most harmful chemicals and developing safe and sustainable chemicals, materials, and products from the drawboard.

Work to stop the export of hazardous chemicals banned in the EU to countries with less stringent regulations.
