Jean Lambert MEP commented: “Europe's 'animal testing' legislation - Directive 86/609 – is desperately out of date. Animal Experimentation is cruel, unnecessary and whilst the public vote with their feet increasingly making a conscious decision to buy products and brands against testing on animals, clearly flies in the face of public opinion.
“We have previously called for a complete and permanent ban on the testing and sale of cosmetics and medicines tested on animals and will once again remind the EU Commission of this demand urging them to bring this, and other animal protection policies, into modern legislation.”
I was pleased to see this from Jean Lamber. Pharmaceutical companies replicate similar drugs and are driven not by care for humanity but cash. We need to be sceptical of how they develop and market drugs. More here from Jean
