Greenpeace has accused the European Commission of slander after it called its research on an EU chemicals law "sloppy" in a press conference last week.
In a letter to the European Ombudsman on Monday (8 May), Greenpeace called the commission's comments about a recent report by the environmental group "misleading, inaccurate and slanderous."
One section in the report - "toxic lobby: how the chemicals industry is trying to kill REACH" - addresses four cases of "revolving doors" between the commission's directorate on enterprise and the chemicals industry as well as its lobby groups, where people working in the commission cross the border to the industry or lobby groups and vice versa.
