Denmark backs BPA ban, but food minister halts stricter rules

摘要

While the European Union has now matched Denmark's existing ban on the use of the chemical bisphenol A (BPA) in baby bottles with its ban from Spring 2011, it is still less restrictive than Denmark - which has outlawed BPA's use in products for under fours, and wants to extend the ban to other consumer groups.rnThe move by the EU is a bit of a u-turn, as only last month the European Food Safety Authority said that the Danish ban was unnecessary.
