Dear Bernhard Url,
Thank you for your reply to our letter from 13 July on EFSA's main findings on glyphosate. Unfortunately, we regret to observe that EFSA has not responded to the main points from our letter. Our legal, scientific and regulatory arguments remain to be addressed. We feel that the lack of will of EFSA to dialogue with us on the content of its work is unacceptable, and will unfortunately inevitably increase the distrust in the institution. The lack of will to engage on scientific, legal and regulatory arguments has also been evident during the conference on glyphosate from 18 September, hosted by MEPs Paulus and Clergeau in the European Parliament. Considering the important shortcomings that were identified, both by PAN Europe and by independent scientists, it is of major importance that EFSA accepts to enter in dialogue, in order to enable thorough scrutiny of its work. We therefore, in a second attempt, ask for your answers on the major deficiencies of EFSA's work on the risk assessment of glyphosate, regarding the following points.
