[14] Traditional herbal medicines : Commission proposes harmonised
registration procedure
The European Commission is to propose a specific registration procedure for
herbal medicinal products with a long-standing traditional use. The

it should benefit both patients and manufacturers, most of which are small-
and medium sized enterprises (SMEs).

dangereuses (pentachlorophénol et autres composés organostanniques).

The European Commission has decided to take the Federal Republic of Germany
to the Court of Justice of the European Communities, following the failure
of the national authorities to notify the necessary measures for
transposing into national law the Directive on pressure equipment. This

the latest.
