dcterms.abstract | <p>Since the FSC Principles and Criteria were adopted in 1995, FSC members have pointed out the weakness of the definition of GMOs. Certification bodies have pointed out the difficulties in ensuring a uniform interpretation of this definition in practice. Forestry enterprises have informed FSC that uncertainties about this policy are one reason why they do not seek certification. This paper is an attempt at clarification.</p> | en |

fscokr.bitstream.description | <p>The FSC General Assembly in June 1999 approved the following motion by anoverwhelming majority:"The GA reaffirms its support for the current prohibition on the use of GMOs by certified forest operations but recognizing the growing intensity and complexity of the debate mandates the Board to a) clarify the existing definition of GMOs and b) complete drafting the FSC policy on GMOs. This policy should address among other things the Precautionary Principle. A draft of such clarification and policy should be submitted to the membership for review and comment within 6 months."</p> | en |
