The Korea National Assembly has passed a Bill to ban companies testing cosmetics and ingredients on animals by 2018. It comes two years sooner than was originally planned. The Bill, proposed by Representative Jeong-Lim Moon, will be signed by the President in the next few days.

The ban follows two years of work by Cruelty Free International with Rep. Moon, members of the Korean government and the Ministry of Food and Drug Safety. It adds to existing bans in the European Union, India and New Zealand and the good progress being made on animal testing regulation in the USA, China and Brazil.

Great - thanks Robert.

I hope Australia bans the importation of cosmetics tested on animals sometime soonish.
