部分原文报道如下:
Following the submission of an application (EFSA-GMO-BE-2011-101) under Regulation (EC) No 1829/2003 from Monsanto, the Panel on Genetically Modified Organisms of the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA GMO Panel) was asked to deliver a scientific opinion on the safety of herbicide-tolerant genetically modified (GM) oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) MON 88302 (Unique Identifier MON-883?2-9)。 The scope of application EFSA-GMO-BE-2011-101 is for import, processing, and food and feed uses of oilseed rape MON 88302 within the European Union (EU) in the same way as any non-GM oilseed rape, but excludes cultivation in the EU.
In delivering its scientific opinion, the EFSA GMO Panel took into account application EFSA-GMO-BE-2011-101, additional information provided by the applicant, scientific comments submitted by the Member States and relevant scientific publications. In conclusion, the EFSA GMO Panel considers that the oilseed rape MON 88302, as described in this application, is as safe as its conventional counterpart and non-GM oilseed rape commercial varieties, and is unlikely to have adverse effects on human and animal health and the environment in the context of the scope of this application.
