Veröffentlichung The Zero Pollution Action Plan as a chance for a cross-regulatory approach to pollution prevention and reduction(Umweltbundesamt, 2021) Conrad, André; Hildebrandt, Sophia; Klauk, Anja; Langner, Marcel; Schubert, Tim; Schulte, Christoph; Schwan, Johannes; Suhr, Michael; Tietjen, Lars; Vierke, Lena; Deutschland. UmweltbundesamtTo further prevent and reduce the pollution of air, water, and soil and to safeguard human health and well-being, the European regulatory framework needs to be improved to include a cross-regulatory approach. This scientific opinion paper presents such an approach for the systemic protection of air, water, soil and human health- the Zero Pollution Ambition Cycle developed by the German Environment Agency (UBA)- The implementation of the measures announced by the European Commission within the EU Action Plan 'Towards Zero Pollution for Air, Water and Soil' published in May 2021 is an excellent opportunity for the different stakeholders for further developing and applying this integrated approach.

The proposals are based on UBA's experiences as competent authority for the environmental risk assessment (ERA) of pharmaceuticals. Our overall aim is to ensure a comprehensive risk management system without compromising availability of medicines for patients. In this context we consider the recent EU strategy on pharmaceuticals and initiatives in connection with EU`s Green Deal particularly the Zero Pollution Ambition and the one substance one assessment approach.

In this scientific opinion paper, the German Environment Agency (⥠UBA⥠) lays down its key recommendations for the upcoming Soil Health Law. Feedback on legislative options is provided and experience gained in Germany in the past years on soil protection and restoration is shared. Knowing the outstanding importance of soils for human and ecosystem health, UBA strongly agrees that a new binding European legislative framework on soils with high ambition is urgently needed.

UmweltbundesamtThis scientific opinion paper outlines existing problems related to data gaps, non-harmonized assessments, insufficient post-market control, and data transparency of pharmaceuticals, and identifies possible solutions through the introduction of a monograph system for active pharmaceutical substances. From UBA's point of view, monographs are the crucial bridge between risk assessment, risk communication and risk management and this across different regulatory areas. The current revision of the general pharmaceutical legislation of the EU offers the opportunity to establish a monograph system for active substances for both veterinary medicinal products and medicinal products for human use.
