澄清:硫丹的现状

FCI 于 3 月 28 日发布的一篇帖子包含来自二手消息来源的有关此事的信息,该消息误解了该化学品的状态。

在写给 FCI 的信中, 印度化学理事会 (ICC) clarified the situation: "The Chemical Review Committee (CRC) of the Rotterdam Convention that met in Rome (20th – 23rd Mar’07) procedurally decided to 推荐 inclusion of endosulfan in the PIC list."

The letter continued, "CRC is a subsidiary body established by the Conference Of Parties (COP). It is the prerogative of the COP, which is the governing plenary body of the Convention, to finally decide whether or not to add the recommended chemical to the PIC list."

"It must be mentioned that not all chemicals recommended by CRC make it to the PIC list. For example, COP had earlier rejected CRC’s recommendation to add Chrysotile Asbestos to the PIC list."

下一次缔约方会议可能会就硫丹做出决定,会议定于 2008 年底举行。
