One of the main precepts of Soldiers - “will never be in a hurry to carry out orders of a superior, because it can be revoked” - is an immutable rule for Ukrainian citizens. Only it sounds more ironic: “Do not hurry to fulfill the law, because it can cancel. Thus, disrespect for the law to educate us it was politics, which ought to do just the opposite. The other day once again they have revised the electoral law, and the Cabinet decided to abolish legislation on the marking of goods marked “without GMO” - endorsed the bill.
According to the Minister of Economy Bohdan Danylyshyn, “the introduction of such labeling leads to unnecessary loss of time and funds of economic entities, which is associated with the re-labeling of products in commercial networks.” As the minister explained, the additional costs lead the production of new labels and laboratory studies, even those products where GMOs can not be, in principle, for example, salt. The Minister stressed that the marking “no GMO” does not meet international standards. Thus, the government, according to Danylyshyn, favors the introduction of labeling that only product that contains only registered in Ukraine genetically modified organisms and products. Recall that the author of the law which the Government intends to correct, was MP Andrew Pawlowski. Glad its success, he December 17 of last year, wrote on his blog: “My bill passed today 375 votes of people”s deputies. I think this is a victory of common sense. The consumer has the right to receive complete and accurate information about the product, which enables her conscious and responsible choice . Since established in all countries of the world and so is the requirement of Article 15 of the Law of Ukraine “On Protection of Consumer Rights.
“I want to emphasize - said the MP - the current legislation does not allow to deceive the consumer. In particular, marked” without GMO “are allowed to apply only after verification in accordance with the law.” And before that, spending his law through parliamentary committees, Pawlowski wrote in his blog that the “mark” without GMO “in different variations is becoming popular worldwide. He even told me a terrible story about genetically modified corn, which proved toxic for some insect species In particular, bees. Because of it, they lost their orientation in space, which could destroy the industry of beekeeping. As a result of GM maize was almost universally banned in Europe.
But why the government decided to reverse? .. Apparently, one of the reasons - financial difficulties for the establishment of appropriate laboratories. They planned to allocate up to 2012 much as 5.7 million hryvnia. But there is another reason. Here”s how to open its essence in one of the comments posted on the Internet: “All right. The budget at the expense of law-abiding businessmen have already added. People had incurred expenditure. And those who are closer to the government and can influence it, in no hurry … and won.”
This version is indirectly confirmed the Day, “the head of government business associations” New Formation “Vyacheslav Kredisov. Noting that the marking “immediately raises the cost of the production process of production”, he supported the Government”s decision on its partial lifting, but did not deny that there is a “fact of punishment respectable businessman.”
Another aspect of this problem raised the bar association lawyer Volkov-Koziakov and partners “Lesya Kovtun. She said that despite the adoption of the law, “the system for detecting GMOs in the product was not introduced because the manufacturer is not obliged to send samples to laboratories with appropriate controls. The control system similar to that which exists in the European Union is also not established.” If all the same to someone today will prove that in the product labeling contained no more than 0,9% of GMO, it says the lawyer, a manufacturer would be liable only for violations of the rules of marking. And if you leave the law in its present form, the detection of GMOs will testify to that manufacturer has indicated false information and misled consumers. On this basis it is possible the court awarded damages to the consumer.
“Thus, - said Kovtun - revising the law, the government restricts the consumer”s rights and its ability to protect their health.”
She adds that in his time dealing with this issue and found that in our products is very much hidden GMOs. For example, wheat grown from seed, where there is a GMO, but officially the seeds with GMOs in the country is not imported. cows we have provide food with GMO … And who says this? But the consequences from the use of milk can be various …”.
“Formally, the government in amending the Act did not violate, - said the lawyer, - Ukrainians, as before, not in a position to verify the presence of GMOs. &la8et;/P>
