Deputy PM says he does not knowingly give his children GM food and favours a precautionary approach
read
"Nick Clegg has said he does not knowingly give his children GM food.
Despite
a lack of evidence of any effect on human health from eating food
containing GM ingredients, the deputy prime minister called for a
cautious approach towards the adoption of GM crops.
Last week the environment secretary, Owen Paterson, pressed for a relaxation of strict EU rules
on the cultivation of GM crops. Paterson has said GM crops are probably
safer than conventional food and offer "wonderful opportunities to
improve human health"."
