It will be recalled that Directive 2001/18/EC which is the basic act for this authorisation was adopted by the Council and the Parliament in 2001 to reinforce the framework for authorisation of GMOs for cultivation.
Tuleb meelde tuletada, et selle loa aluseks oleva direktiivi 2001/18/EÜ võtsid nõukogu ja parlament vastu 2001. aastal, et tugevdada GMOde kasvatamislubade andmise raamistikku.
