“The risks of horizontal gene transfer from animal faeces is so low that most scientists around the world who know about this subject agree that the consequences of it ever happening are vanishingly small”, Chairman of the Life Sciences Network, Dr William Rolleston said today.
“The accusations being made by GE Free NZ against PPL Therapeutics are irresponsible and unfounded speculation. They are nothing more than an attempt to create distrust. Claire Bleakley should come up with substantiated facts to justify the assertions she is making. Her inability to do so shows that she has no basis.
“This behaviour clearly repeats the
irresponsible behaviour of certain anti-GE activists and we
are inevitably going to see more of this in the coming
months as we get closer to the moratorium expiring on
applications for the commercial release of genetically
modified organisms”, concluded Dr Rolleston.
