IARC Monographs on the evaluation of carcinogenic risks to humans; dry cleaning, some chlorinated solvents and other industrial chemicals.

This summary of public comments on the draft Preamble to the IARC Monographs will be considered by the Advisory Group that will meet in December 2005 to review the amended Preamble. The summary is organized according to the sections of the Preamble in order to show which areas received comment and whether the views were similar or different. Similar comments are reported together and a single short statement represents the key point. To keep the summary concise, the commenters’ detailed rationales are not repeated here, instead, the individual or organization making each comment is identified and the reader is encouraged to view the full original comment. Three commenters (Drs. Huff, Melnick, and Tomatis) also suggested several specific editorial changes. Where not related to a more global issue, these editorial changes are not repeated here, and the Advisory Group will refer to the original comments as it considers the suggested editorial changes.
