Foodproductiondaily: "Denmark has introduced a temporary ban on bisphenol A (BPA) in all food contact materials for young children amid fears the chemical could inhibit brain development.
The Government decided to impose the ban for children aged 0-3 as a precautionary measure after its food safety experts raised concerns that low-level exposure to the substance may inhibit learning capacity.
From 1 July, 2010, it will be illegal to sell infant feeding bottles, feeding cups and packaging for baby food containing BPA. The Ministry of Food, Agriculture and Fisheries announced the three-month transition period to allow current stocks of children’s food packaging to be “marketed”."
