Implementing Biosafety Procedures in Developing Countries: Accessing Independent, Impartial Advice
Frederick, R.J.
Abstract
International efforts to incorporate biotechnology in national development schemes have prompted great interest in the formulation of biosafety regulations and guidelines. Adoption of the regulatory instruments is, however, only the first step in the process of ensuring the safe application of these technologies. Implementing guidelines can be done most efficiently and effectively when the experience and expertise of knowledgeable scientists are accessible. Through the organization of the Biotechnology Advisory Commission, an impartial advisory service for biosafety implementation is offered to developing countries.
