Businesses for freedom of choice
The businesses Alb-Gold, Alnatura, Andechser, dm, Frosta and Molkerei Berchtesgadener Land have composed a second open letter, this time to the EU agriculture ministers (see right), asking for your support in the form of a signature by 31 August 2024.
Legislation on new genetic engineering technologies (NGT) is currently being negotiated at EU level. A trilogue, in which the three institutions - the European Commission, the European Parliament and the Council of Agriculture Ministers - negotiate a new law together, has not yet been able to begin because the Council of Agriculture Ministers has not yet found a common position. This means that now is a good time to lobby the responsible ministers in the respective countries to maintain labelling and freedom of choice for all GM foods.
If you represent a business in the food industry and would like to support the open letter of the Initiative for the Preservation of Labelling and Freedom of Choice in Genetic Engineering, please complete the following form.
After 31 August 2024, the letter with the names of the signatory businesses will be personalised and sent to the responsible ministry in each EU Member State.
