Description
The consultation activities aim at capturing evidence and views from the public and from a broad range of stakeholders active across all levels of the agri-food chain, and beyond, who are interested in or are impacted by the products under the scope of this initiative. The consultation activities will inform the impact assessment; they will allow all interested parties to provide relevant information on the problems presented, the baseline scenario, and on the potential ways forward. The consultation will assist the Commission in understanding the implications of the possible policy options for the different stakeholders involved. In addition, the consultation activities will also enable to identifying additional policy option elements and ensure that no impacts have been overlooked. The consultation activities above will build on and take into account the information received during the comprehensive targeted consultation with Member State competent authorities and EU-level stakeholder associations impacted by or having expressed interest in NGTs, which was carried out in the context of the NGT study. EU-level stakeholder associations encompassed: agri-food business operators (including organic and GM-free sectors), the biotechnology industry, environmental and agri-food non-governmental organisations and academia/research organisations.| Period | 28 Jun 2022 |
