Dear all,
we have the opportunity to hold a workshop in EU Parliament on 6 of June to present our new report. The host will be Martin Häusling / Greens, we will look for further MEPs to become Co-Hosts.
To agree with the office of Häusling, I have to provide a draft program. Since just the next day, the EU Commission might come up with some proposal on New GE regulation, we also could address CRISPR Patents as discussed in our annual meeting.
these are my preliminary ideas (for two hours):
Welcome
1. NPOS: Presenting new report (20 Minutes)
2. Testbiotech: Presenting recent findings from CRISPR patents (some additional research) (10 Minutes)
3. NPOS: the legal situation and the role of the EU (10 Minutes - this might be my part)
4. Contributions from the panel (MEPs, COPA/COGECA, Euroseeds, organic breeders, EPO, Commission, Experts from Member States) (30 Minutes)
5. General Discussion (30 Minutes)
Final words
please come back with your questions, comments and suggestions.
Christoph
