> The information concerning France is credited to Dr. Anne Alix, Ministry
of Agriculture, France. 
In February, the Ministry was condemned by the Conseil d'Etat, the highest
administrative court, for the illegal authorization of Cruiser�
(thiamethoxam) in 2008 and 2009.



Plus:
- the working group includes Christian Maus, from Bayer CropScience, and the
two great pillars on which the industry in Europe relies in the case of bees
and pesticides: Alix Anne (already cited) and Helen Thompson.
- from the States, there is Laurie Adams, representing a big American thing
in which we find companies that have a entomological storefront, but, also,
discreetly slipped among the partners of Syngenta.

Minus:
- the group does not contain a disease specialist, nor a biologist 'bees'
known in Europe as such.

Keep open your eyes and mind.

Kind regards,

Ghislain De Roeck,
Belgium, Europe.
