"Products that could cause problems to society can certainly not be approved without being closely scrutinised. This regulation is therefore of extreme importance to the European market, as it safeguards food safety and human health. Foods produced using nanotechnology must be subject to a specific risk assessment before they can be approved, labelled and placed on the European market. The use of food obtained from cloned animals or their offspring is a controversial subject but, in my opinion, these foods should not be authorised in the European Union. Uncertainties concerning the economic, social and environmental impacts of this new technology demand an ever stricter assessment. Scientists have become the principal mediators in society’s relationship with risk, with the power to anticipate future dangers and decide on the approval of novel foods. Only foods registered on the Union list can be put on the market."@en1
