New Zealand's Gene Technology Bill faces backlash over concerns about GMOs' environmental impacts and lack of transparency.
New Zealand's Gene Technology Bill is facing criticism from local and international groups like GE Free NZ and MASIPAG, a Filipino farmers' organization.
While some support the bill, many are concerned about the removal of precautionary principles and the potential environmental impacts of genetically engineered organisms.
Proponents argue the bill could lead to cheaper and faster commercialization of GMOs, but critics point to past failures and lack of transparency.
The Health Select Committee will continue to hear submissions on the bill.
