Western Australian public consultation on GE crops inadequate - extend review says Greenpeace

With two days left for public submissions to the review of legislation controlling the release of genetically engineered (GE) crops in Western Australia, Greenpeace is calling for the submission period to be extended, saying it has been barely publicised. [...] ”The introduction of GE crops would dramatically change the face of agriculture in Western Australia, yet the Government has barely publicised its current review of its Genetically Modified Crops Free Areas Act and has given the public just four weeks to lodge submissions.”
