EFSA Delays BPA Risk Assessment

The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) has extended “the timeline to
complete its full risk assessment of bisphenol A (BPA) to the end of 2014.” After
receiving nearly 250 comments in response to the second part of its draft risk
assessment, EFSA has emphasized the need for “a full understanding of these
comments before finalizing its risk assessment of BPA.” Additional details
about the draft risk assessment and an April 23, 2014, stakeholder meeting
appear in Issues 511 and 515 of this Update.
