Theme 2: Possible gaps - general

Guiding questions

• What types of gaps may exist in the current set of standards that relate to the handling, transport, packaging and identification of LMOs? For example, are there gaps in the scope of the subject matter that is covered by existing standards? Or are there gaps in the capacity to implement existing standards? Please provide and discuss concrete examples where possible.
• Where do the Protocol’s rules regarding the handling, transport, packaging and identification of living modified organisms end and the measures of other international organizations regarding the handling, transport, packaging and identification of food derived from genetically modified organisms begin?
