CHALLENGES TO EUROPEAN COMMISSIONERS OVER WATER FLUORIDATION.

CHALLENGES TO EUROPEAN COMMISSIONERS OVER WATER FLUORIDATION.
UK Councils Against Fluoridation have just updated our website with the latest news www.ukcaf.org
Dr Philip Michael Vice President of the International Society of Doctors for the Environment has challenged the European Scientific Committee on Health and Environmental Risks (SCHER) over its competence and authority to carry out a proposed study into the safety of water fluoridation.as the 'SCHER committee is not fit for purpose.'
We at UKCAF have written to the Secretariat that neither national regulators (MHRA) nor Commissioners have authority to express 'opinions' on whether or not fluoridation needs to be subjected to medicinal regulation and that as Dr Michael says SCHER is not the appropriate body to assess the risks of medicinal intervention.
Dr Caroline Lucas MEP has also made a formal complaint that the MHRA has not furfilled its responsibility to verify the correct classification of hexafluorosilicic acid as a medicinal product.
The full letters are on our website and we trust that you will circulate this important news.
