"content": "Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I only wanted to stand and confirm one thing. This matter was before the Departmental Committee on Agriculture, Lands and Natural Resources in the Ninth Parliament. The issue which was of concern to us was risk assesment. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I see that, that issue has been taken care of by Clauses 7, 18 to 22, which are dealing conclusively with risk assesment. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I agree with my colleagues that, if they need to be strengthened, they should be strengthened. But the Committee's concern at that time was that risk assesment was not being spelt out very well in the Bill. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, it was also on that basis that when we were in Bonn, we stood against the introduction of GE-trees because we knew there was no law in this country to protect us. Now, that law is coming and it will definitely protect us. Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, with those few remarks, I beg to support the Bill."
