EU commission faces challenge over RR-Bt GE soy approval for food and feed

The EU gave permission for use of the soybeans in food and feed at end of June. However, it is claimed that the European Food Safety Authority has not carried out the risk assessments for the product ”in the way” as legally required. The European Network of Scientists for Social and Environmental Responsibility has now filed a complaint about the matter to the commission. Other complainants include the Society for Ecological Research, Sambucus, the foundation Manfred-Hermsen-Stiftung for Nature Conservation and Environmental Protection and the Foundation on Future Farming.
