    WRITTEN QUESTION E-2152/97 by Hiltrud Breyer (V) to the Council (24 June 1997)

    Subject: Novel food regulation No 258/97 - Submission of DNA reference samples by applicants for a product

    Is there any provision for manufacturers of genetically engineered food to submit to the supervisory bodies the information they need to perform their tasks (e.g. information on the detailed structure of the genetically engineered matter)?

    Joint answer to Written Questions E-2144/97, E-2146/97 and E-2152/97 (20 October 1997)

    Subject to implementation of ARticle 8 (3), Regulation No 258/97 does not specifically provide for setting up supervisory bodies as referred to by the Honourable Member.

    The practical arrangements for monitoring the implementation of this Regulation at national level are the responsibility of the Member States.
