Whilst Media House do not name DuPont, Dell, L’Oreal, Revlon and Estee Lauder as their clients, their 2005 report EU REGULATION: A CHALLENGE FOR US BUSINESSES[3] lists them by name as being affected by EU regulation. Whilst this is not conclusive, it does draw attention to the possibility that they are potentially connected to Media House in some form or another.

Regulation

In the 2005 report EU REGULATION: A CHALLENGE FOR US BUSINESSES [4], the Media House Commercial Intelligence Team write of how they are concerned at how 'Europe’s stringent environmental standards entail a substantial financial and bureaucratic burden' for many American Companies. They voice a resistance to new regulations designed to protect our environment stating that 'Europe has been under intense pressure to stem the flow of new environment laws' They go on to add that 'there is a hope, given the economic downturn, the issues over expansion and the constitution that the appetite for new legislation may be blunted. Indeed the European Commission President Jose Manual Barroso has just launched the region’s biggest ever de-regulation campaign; supported by the UK and its ‘better regulation agenda’.

The 'better regulation agenda' they refer to is that of the then called Better Regulation Task Force (now know as the Better Regulation Commission, which was replaced by the Risk and Regulation Advisory Council in 2008[5]). The Better Regulation Task Force (BRTF) was set up in 1997 as an 'independent advisory body' to advise the Government on regulatory action. The BRTF went on to ‘become a very influential body in influencing the Government's policy on regulation’[6].
