Result of the decision
Approval of the import and/or use of the LMO(s) with conditions
Products derived from corn line MON95275 such as flour (used in bread), meal (used in polenta) and grits (used in cereals) will likely contain novel DNA or novel protein, and if so, will require labelling as ‘genetically modified’. 
EN
Section 1.5.2—4 of the Code generally requires a food for sale that consists of a GM food or has a GM food as an ingredient to be labelled as ‘genetically modified’, unless one of the exemptions listed in that subsection apply. If the GM food is present in the food for sale as an ingredient, the ‘genetically modified’ statement must be in conjunction with the name of the GM food (subsection 1.5.2—4(2)) and it may be included in the statement of ingredients for the food for sale (subsection 1.5.2—4(3)).
