WTO ruling on GM case US vs. EU delayed to January 2006

WTO Ruling On EU GMO Laws Delayed

A World Trade Organization dispute panel ruling on the EU?s alleged moratorium on market authorizations for new genetically modified products is being put off until after the WTO?s Hong Kong ministerial conference in December. The panel has informed the EU and the three complainants in the dispute ? the United States, Argentina, and Canada ? that its preliminary ruling, which had been due October 10, will now be postponed until the first week of January 2006. No date was given for the release of the final ruling to the parties, although that normally takes place a month after the preliminary findings have been issued.
