GENETICALLY MODIFIED ORGANISMS AND CROSS-CONTAMINATION

Early day motion 82, tabled 6 November 2007 by Peter Ainsworth (Conservative). Signed by 30 members.

That this House notes that the science of genetically modified organisms is still being debated and the commercial and environmental dangers posed by the risk of cross-contamination are a matter of serious public concern; and calls on the Government to reconsider its implementation of the Environmental Liability Directive which is intended to protect biodiversity, land and water from environmental harm.
