Taiwan Encourages the Use of Alternatives for Safety Tests
Feb 10, 2015
"Taiwan Ministry of Health and Welfare" has announced it will adjust the requirements for technical documents necessary for review of new compounds contained in medicated cosmetics. The motivation for this adjustment is to reduce the need for animal testing and work towards a cruelty free cosmetic regulatory framework. MOHW is attempting to align itself with the numerous scientifically substantiated viable alternatives to animal testing published by both the OECD and EU. This adjustment also meets the needs for global harmonization within the cosmetics industry and most importantly complies with article 15 of Taiwan Animal Protection Act, which is “Stakeholders should endeavor to avoid using live animals for scientific tests. If unavoidable, a reduction in the use of live animals is better; moreover, such tests must minimize animal suffering and pain”. In the announcement MOHW also encourages companies to prioritize the use of alternatives for safety tests.
