据欧盟网站消息，12月4日欧盟委员会发布声明，一致同意在成员国境内限制或禁止转基因作物种植，无须依据欧盟风险评估结论，最终决定权交由具体成员国。
该草案尚需通过欧盟常驻代表委员会和欧洲议会全体会议表决，有望于近几周内被欧洲议会和理事会正式批准，并于2015年春开始生效。
部分原文报道如下：
I am glad to announce that yesterday evening the European Parliament and the Council have reached a provisional political agreement on the draft legislation on GMO cultivation. The proposal, still subject to confirmation by Coreper and by the plenary of the European Parliament, will give Member States the possibility to restrict or prohibit the cultivation of GMOs on their territory, without affecting the EU risk assessment.
The agreement, if /confirm/ied, would meet Member States' consistent calls since 2009, to have the final say on whether or not GMOs can be cultivated on their territory, in order to better take into account their national context and, above all, the views of their citizens. The text agreed is in line with President Juncker commitment, as reflected in his Political Guidelines, to give the democratically elected governments at least the same weight as scientific advice when it comes to important decisions concerning food and environment.
