Unauthorised 'Bt63' genetic modification in rice and rice products from China

China should stop non authorised GMO exports to England
The emergency measure will require imports of the products originating or consigned from China to be certified as free of the unauthorised genetically modified organism “Bt63”. National legislation to implement the Decision in England has been prepared and is being submitted for Ministerial consideration under the title of 'The Specified Products from China (Restriction on First Placing on the Market) (England) Regulations 2008'.
Regulation (EC) No. 1829/2003 on Genetically Modified Food and Feed stipulates that food and feed containing genetically modified material cannot be placed on the EU market unless the associated genetically modified organism has been authorised under the Regulation, following a rigorous safety assessment. Material from unauthorised genetically modified organisms in food or feed is not permitted at any level.
For the foregoing is that it has increased care in imports into the EU, although still unknown that the Bt63 rice produces some damage to health.
