In its Communication replying to the European Citizens' Initiative "Ban glyphosate and protect people and the environment from toxic pesticides", the Commission also announced the preparation of a legislative proposal "covering transparency in scientific assessments, quality and independence of the scientific studies that are the basis of the Union risk assessment carried out by EFSA and the governance of EFSA".
Teatises, mis esitati vastuseks Euroopa kodanikualgatusele „Keelustada glüfosaat ning kaitsta inimesi ja keskkonda toksiliste pestitsiidide eest", teatas komisjon, et koostab seadusandliku ettepaneku, milles käsitletakse teadushinnangute läbipaistvust, liidu tasandil EFSA tehtud riskihindamise aluseks olevate teadusuuringute kvaliteeti ja sõltumatust ning EFSA juhtimist.
