PETA對於無要求無動實產品之原料供應商也必須簽約疑慮之回應

底下的英文是原信件轉貼
翻成中文大致是在說:

當一個公司要取得CCIC
The Coalition for Consumer Information on Cosmetics
的無動物實驗認證標準時,
<= 就是這位快樂的跳兔



他們所簽署的聲明,要求該公司不使用任何不必要的動物試驗,在原料,配方,或是成品都是,未來研發的產品同樣也不可以。除了商品公司本身要簽名,連其合作的所有原料商也要簽署這些聲明。PETA不會要求這些供應商也都必須簽約,但是他們有要求商品公司和供應商以口頭或書面確認其原料不經無動物實驗。

同時PETA也會和商家詳談所有必須知道的地方,確認他們清楚自己簽下的聲明及保證。

而選擇這樣進行的原因是不想讓事情流於太複雜及太官僚。實際上,有很多大家相信已經多年無動物實驗產品的公司,也不願意進行這麼麻煩的紙上作業。

所以他們試著卡掉這些冗長的作業,但同時也要維持名單的公正,如此消費者才知道哪些公司有好的政策,並且能開始購買其產品,來支持這家公司。

Hi

Thank you so much for writing. I understand your concerns and wanted to take an opportunity to address them.

 As I mentioned in my response forwarded to you by Jessi, PETA’s Statement of Assurance requires that companies not conduct or commission any non-required animal tests on ingredients, formulations, or finished products and not do so in the future. As you know, the CCIC agreement requires companies to meet the provisions of PETA’s Statement of Assurance (which covers products, formulations, and ingredients) and also obtain a signed statement from each of their ingredient suppliers. PETA does not require the suppliers of the listed companies to actually sign a statement, but we do require our cruelty-free companies to have agreements in place with their suppliers (verbal or written), and we provide them with guidance and language to help them put these agreements in place. We then review signed statements and talk to companies about any concerns we might have to make sure that they know exactly what they are guaranteeing when they sign our contract. That is why we can securely claim that if a company is certified as cruelty-free by us, they are guaranteeing that their suppliers also do not test.

 The reason we chose this policy is so the process wouldn’t be complicated or bureaucratic. Many companies that we believe are already totally cruelty-free have shown over the last few years that they are not willing to complete the lengthy paperwork and various steps required by the CCIC’s standard. We tried to cut down on these steps, while maintaining the integrity or our list, so that consumers would know about these companies’ good policies and start supporting them by purchasing their cruelty-free products.

 I hope this answers some of your questions and clarifies our certification process. Thank you, also, for sharing all of your sources and links with us and for all you do for animals. Please let me know if you have any more questions. Kind regards,
