lpv:translated text	"Given the risk that chemicals present to people’s health and to the environment, we Swedish Christian Democrats believe it to be obvious that, in accordance with the principle of chemicals which have not undergone certain tests should not be allowed to be marketed, either. Furthermore, we support the substitution principle which has long been a well-established principle of Swedish chemicals policy. In the same way, we believe that a reversed burden of proof should apply to substances that give cause for concern, which means that it is the industry, not the authorities, which has to demonstrate that a subject can be used in an acceptable way. Because chemicals can involve significant risks in smaller quantities too, we believe that chemicals in quantities of less than a tonne which are imported to, or produced within, the EU should also be covered by the new system. In that way, we shall in quite a few respects be departing from the position adopted by the Group of the European People’s Party and European Democrats."@en1
