家园 FDA对转基因的监管并不严密,恰好相反是听之任之的

以下来自直言了和讯博客

美国FDA关于转基因苹果的新闻公告清楚说明他们做的是“咨询”而不是“批准”。公告如下:

FDA concludes Arctic Apples and Innate Potatoes are safe for consumption。

For Immediate Release, March 20, 2015。

外链出处

若就法律责任较真,那可以看到,美国FDA的结论没有任何科学实验或临床试验的支持;该部门之所以可以在没科学证据的条件下做结论而不承担“批准”的法律责任,主要缘故就是他们的授权管理是“咨询”而不是“批准”。进一步说,若追究美国FDA的法律责任,他们可以辩解说、他们没有“批准”任何转基因食品上市。

【二】 FDA管理转基因食品为“咨询”而不是“批准”的法规政策规定:

Guidance to Industry for Foods Derived from New Plant Varieties。

FDA Federal Register,Volume 57 - 1992。Friday, May 29, 1992。

外链出处

该法规政策明确说明,其授权的主要依据是“实质等同”原则。该原则来自经合组织推荐(经合组织是发达国家商界俱乐部,不是任何意义上的科学学术机构),并没有任何国际科学界的认可或推荐。因此,FDA也只能做“咨询”而非“批准”。其实,许多事情说明,美国当局正在静悄悄地抛弃“实质等同”原则。

直言了给出的第一个链接我打开,文摘以后几段

As part of its consultation process, both Okanagan, of British Columbia, Canada, and Simplot, of Boise, Idaho, submitted to the FDA a summary of their safety and nutritional assessments.

The consultation process includes a review of information provided by a company about the nature of the molecular changes and the nutritional composition of the food compared to traditionally bred varieties,” said Dennis Keefe, Ph.D., director of the FDA’s Office of Food Additive Safety. “This case-by-case safety evaluation ensures that food safety issues are resolved prior to commercial distribution.”

The FDA has no additional food safety questions at this time concerning food from these plant varieties. It is a company’s continuing responsibility to ensure that food it markets is safe and otherwise in compliance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements. In certain circumstances, characteristics of these varieties of apples and potatoes that differ from their conventional counterparts may require disclosure to the consumer. Both companies are encouraged to consult with the FDA about potential labeling requirements.

注意我加黑的部分,很明确写明FDA只是进行咨询consultation,即FDA就几个问题写信给几个公司要求对方回答,对方回答以后,FDA称没有被的问题了,然后强调,这几家公司负有保证产品安全的责任
