Order of Business.
I agree we will need to have a debate on the issue of genetically modified foods. We should view it in a very sane and balanced manner and avoid frightening people with the idea of "frankenfood". The approach should be to ensure there will be benefits all round, rather than a Luddite opposition to all progress. We should take our time while also ensuring that necessary progress actually takes place.
