The European Commission requested EFSA, in accordance with Article 31 of Regulation (EC) No 178/2002, to develop a statement on possible criteria for risk assessment of plants produced by targeted mutagenesis, cisgenesis, and intragenesis. The statement was requested as advice for consideration by the European Commission to support the ongoing policy initiative on plants produced by targeted mutagenesis and cisgenesis.
To develop the statement, EFSA considered previously published EFSA Opinions on targeted mutagenesis, cisgenesis, and intragenesis and those assessment aspects discussed by the GMO Panel in the EFSA Opinions on plants developed through synthetic biology which are relevant for the risk assessment of plants developed through targeted mutagenesis, cisgenesis, and intragenesis.
