First, as Mr. Ellis mentioned, it could publish some industry documents. We are guessing that the documents contain secret material. But the research we did in 2004 showed that they were going much too far. Access to any information about the industry is systematically denied. We ask if the industry really wants to issue the information. We could find a happy medium that would keep trade secrets confidential. But there is still plenty of other information that could be published.
Actually, environmental and consumer organizations are asking for a lot of epidemiological reports and want access to this industry data. We are not asking for access to secrets. We just want to be able to see what kind of scientific research has been done so that we can go to research professionals and ask them whether the science is good or bad. Then things would be getting more transparent.
How can we tie other things into the approval process? There is a huge mistrust of the industry and of the government's approval process. I do not think that it is the officials' fault. But there has to be some public thought on the matter, and we are not seeing that at the moment.
