The Chief Scientific Adviser to Government, Professor Patrick Cunningham, has examined the scientific aspects of Genetically Modified Foods and Feeds and, arising from his role in providing advice to Government on relevant scientific issues, provided a paper on this topic in September 2007. I circulated this to all members of the Cabinet Subcommittee on Science, Technology and Innovation for information and consideration.
