Download or read book Biotechnology Regulation and Trade written by Stuart J. Smyth and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the regulatory and trade challenges facing the global adoption of biotechnological products and offers strategies for overcoming these obstacles and moving towards greater global food security. The first section of the book establishes the context of the conflict, discussing the challenges of global governance, international trade, and the history of regulation of genetically modified (GM) crops. In this section, the authors emphasize the shift from exclusively science-based regulation to the more socio-economically focused framework established by the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety, which was adopted in 2000. The second section of the book provides a snapshot of the current state of international GM crop adoption and regulation, highlighting the US, Canada, and the EU. The final section of the book identifies options for breaking the gridlock of regulation and trade that presently exist. This book adds to the current literature by providing new information about innovative agricultural technologies and encouraging debate by providing an alternative to the narratives espoused by environmental non-governmental organizations. This book will appeal to students of economics, political science, and policy analysis, as well as members of regulatory agencies and agricultural industry firms.

This book was released on 2002 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this project was to identify and examine the issues pertinent to the regulation of genetically modified (GM) foods. The report begins with a brief reference to the ethical principles guiding the Advisory Committee's work. This is followed by a discussion of the science, governance and regulation of GM foods in Canada, a look at some of the recent policy developments in Canada and around the world, and an outline of some of the economic, environmental and socio-ethical elements of the GM foods debate. The report then discusses the Committee's recommendations, organized under 4 themes: good governance; precaution; information and consumer choice; social and ethical considerations. Annexes include a summary of written input on the Committee's Interim Report; an introduction to possible 2nd and 3rd generation GM foods and the questions they raise; an analysis of the impact of labelling GM foods on a number of public policy issues; a framework to consider the acceptability of GM foods.

Book excerpt: This Green Paper was issued to give the public a chance to participate in the development of regulatory policy relating to the new advances in biotechnology. The main objectives of the paper were to develop policy that assures protection of human health and the environment; to define an appropriate regulatory framework that sets out the requirements for all biotechnological work in Ontario; and to seek consistency with requirements in other jurisdictions. The paper describes biotechnology and some of the opportunities for commercial exploitation; the need to identify potential risks when there is little factual information; the current state of biotechnology in Canada and Ontario and the jurisdictional issues; current approaches to legislation and control; major issues and matters of principle common to all applications of biotechnology; and concludes with 2 possible approaches for providing a legal framework for regulation.

Download or read book Socio Economic Considerations in Biotechnology Regulation written by Karinne Ludlow and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-12-03 with total page 311 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the context of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety (CPB) was established as an implementing agreement. The CPB is an international agreement establishing the rights of recipient countries to be notified of and to approve or reject the domestic import and/or production of living modified organisms (LMOs). Decisions regarding import/production are to be on the basis of a biosafety assessment. Article 26.1 of the CPB allows for the (optional) inclusion of socio-economic considerations (SECs) into that biosafety assessment process. This book compiles expert assessments of the issues relevant to SEC assessment of LMOs and fundamental for decisions regarding whether to undertake such assessments at all. It includes an overview of the inclusion of SEC assessment in the regulation of LMOs that looks at the rationale for the inclusion of SECs, in the context of the existing science-based risk assessment systems. This book reviews the various factors that can and have been suggested for inclusion in SEC assessment, and provides a meaningful dialogue about the contrasts, benefits and tradeoffs that are, and will, be created by the potential move to the inclusion of SECs in the regulation of LMOs, making it of interest to both academics and policy-makers.

Download or read book Regulation of Genome Editing in Plant Biotechnology written by Hans-Georg Dederer and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-08-16 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides in-depth insights into the regulatory frameworks of five countries and the EU concerning the regulation of genome edited plants. The country reports form the basis for a comparative analysis of the various national regulations governing genetically modified organisms (GMOs) in general and genome edited plants in particular, as well as the underlying regulatory approaches.The reports, which focus on the regulatory status quo of genome edited plants in Argentina, Australia, Canada, the EU, Japan and the USA, were written by distinguished experts following a uniform structure. On this basis, the legal frameworks are compared in order to foster a rational assessment of which approaches could be drawn upon to adjust, or to completely realign, the current EU regime for GMOs. In addition, a separate chapter identifies potential best practices for the regulation of plants derived from genome editing.
