Resolution opposing authorisations of certain GM maize

The European Parliament's plenary session adopted a resolution on 5 April 2017 opposing plans from the European Commission to authorise imports of food and feed products derived from or containing a herbicide and pest-resistance genetically modified (GM) maize.

The documents highlights the lack of data on the many sub-combinations of the variety - all of which would also be authorised - and reiterates a previous call for a reform of the EU’s GMO authorisation procedure.
