The article identifies a group of core regulatory principles for GMOs and provides an argument for how these principles should be ranked. A key conclusion is that the regulation of GMOs should be driven by a principle of best practice risk assessment and that the precautionary principle and the principle of substantial equivalence should drop out of the regulatory picture".}, recid = {12143}, pages = {1 volume ([10] pages) ;}, }
