Court dismisses action against Commission's compliance check decision
On 29 March 2023, the General Court dismissed in its entirety an action brought against European Commission's compliance check decision requesting two reproductive toxicity studies, as well as a dose-range finding study for one of them.
This is the first case where the General Court had to assess a compliance check decision under REACH adopted by the Commission, and ECHA was supporting the Commission as intervener in the case. See more details in case T-868/19.
