The 9th Meeting of the European Advisory Committees on Biosafety (MEACB) took place in Berlin in November 2019. During this meeting, the majority of the safety committees present agreed that there is a need to change the European GMO regulation. A joint statement by the ZKBS, the Swiss SECB and the Dutch COGEM regarding a possible future regulation of the New Molecular Techniques was drawn up and sent to the European Commission.
