New gene technology bill is concerning

Medical applications are often rolled out in support of the technology but that is a very different case to release of GE organisms into the wider environment. Medical use is laboratory contained and isn't self replicating, outside of the host individual, so doesn't pose the same threat to our environment that GE plants and animals do. Using medical GE as an excuse to release organisms into the 'wild' is nothing more than a smoke screen by the biotech community.
