Liz Brooks attempts to justify ILCA's position in accepting Lansinoh's money for 
advertising and exhibiting.

I am totally unconvnced - ILCA has a responsibility to operate with the highest 
integrity and take the advice of NABA/Marsha Walker and Betty Sterken/INFACT 
which would be the same as any other IBFAN representatives worldwide, I'm 
sure.

It's appalling to do otherwise. ILCA has let the international 
breastfeedingcommunity down again when they should be taking the moral high 
ground. 


Liz - you say you are not ILCA's lawyer, but I do get confused as to whether 
you speak on behalf of ILCA on Lactnet or as an individual as you constantly 
remind us that you are on the Board ?

This issue doesn't necessarily need a lawyer anyway, or if it did, it's the UNICEF 
lawyer who has worked with the Code for many many years that would be 
more useful and free from conflict of interest.

Not only is Lansinoh (Pigeon) a Code violator, is there evidence for this 
product's benefits?? and isn't it necessary to only associate with (endorse by 
assocation) products that are proven and te replicated, through randomized 
controlled studies to be effective.
