BISPHENOL
Early day motion 2163, tabled 6 October 2008 by Andrew Pelling (Independent). Signed by 10 members.
That this House calls upon the Government to follow the example set by Canada in declaring bisphenol A a toxic chemical requiring determined action to limit human and environmental exposures; and notes with concern Exeter University's research on this chemical, commonly used in plastic containers, cans and dentistry, showing higher heart disease, diabetes risks and liver enzymes arising from concentrations of the chemical in the body.
