(12)  ‘The uncertainty assessment suggests that the hazards and thus the risks from the four phthalates may be underestimated. The DNELs for DEHP and BBP may be lower than currently derived. A number of experimental and epidemiological studies have suggested possible effects on the immune system, the metabolic system and neurological development. Some of these studies indicate that reproductive toxicity may not be the most sensitive endpoint and that the selected DNELs may not be sufficiently protective against these other effects. Moreover, the Member State Committee (MSC) has confirmed that these four phthalates are endocrine disruptors related to human health and the Commission is considering to identify them as substances of equivalent concern under Article 57(f) of REACH. This raises additional uncertainties with the risk of these substances.’ See https://www.echa.europa.eu/documents/10162/713fd91d-2919-0575-836a-f66937202d66, p. 9.
