Review will address health and environmental protection
The
Pest Management Regulatory Agency (PMRA) is undertaking a consultation to address elements of the
Pest Control Products Act. The intent of the review is to achieve three objectives:
- Further strengthen human health and environmental protection by modernizing business processes governing pesticide reviews.
- Improve transparency and stakeholder accessibility to information to bolster meaningful participation in decision-making.
- Increase the use of real-world data and independent advice in the decision-making process to better inform decisions to protect human and environmental health.
The consultation period closes May 20, 2022. Those interested should review the
discussion guide, and follow the instructions for submitting comments.
