Clauses
Division 1 – Sale and use of food produced using gene technology
1 Interpretation
(1) For the purposes of this Standard –
a food produced using gene technology means a food which has been derived or developed from an organism which has been modified by gene technology.
Editorial note:
This definition does not include a food derived from an animal or other organism which has been fed food produced using gene technology, unless the animal or organism itself is a product of gene technology.
conventional breeding means all methods used to produce plants, excluding techniques that use gene technology.
gene technology means recombinant DNA techniques that alter the heritable genetic material of living cells or organisms.
line means –
(a) a plant, the genetic material of which includes a transformation event or events; or
(b) any plant, descended from the plant referred to in paragraph (a), that is the result of conventional breeding of that plant with –
(i) any other plant that does not contain a transformation event or events; or
(ii) any other plant that contains a transformation event or events, whether expressed as a line or event, that is listed in Column 3 of the Schedule;
but shall not be taken to mean any plant derived solely as a result of conventional breeding.
transformation event means a unique genetic modification arising from the use of gene technology.
(2) To avoid doubt, columns 1 and 2 of the Schedule contain additional information that is not part of this Code. Information in these columns may be added to or edited in any published version of this Code.
2 General prohibition on the sale and use of food produced using gene technology
A food produced using gene technology, other than a substance regulated as a food additive or processing aid, must not be sold or used as an ingredient or component of any food unless it is listed in Column 3 of the Schedule and complies with any corresponding conditions in Column 4.
3 Deleted
Division 2 – Labelling etc of food produced using gene technology
4 Interpretation and Application
(1) For the purposes of this Division –
genetically modified food means food that is, or contains as an ingredient, including a processing aid, a food produced using gene technology which –
(a) contains novel DNA and/or novel protein; or
(b) has altered characteristics;
but does not include –
(c) highly refined food, other than that with altered characteristics, where the effect of the refining process is to remove novel DNA and/or novel protein;
(d) a processing aid or food additive, except where novel DNA and/or novel protein from the processing aid or food additive remains present in the food to which it has been added;
(e) flavours present in the food in a concentration no more than 1g/kg; or
(f) a food, ingredient, or processing aid in which genetically modified food is unintentionally present in a quantity of no more than 10g/kg per ingredient.
altered characteristics means any of the matters specified in paragraphs 7(a), (b), (c) or (d) of this Standard.
novel DNA and/or novel protein means DNA or a protein which, as a result of the use of gene technology, is different in chemical sequence or structure from DNA or protein present in counterpart food which has not been produced using gene technology.
(2) Any statement required by clause 5 may be contained in the statement of ingredients where the genetically modified food is an ingredient or processing aid.
(3) Where genetically modified food is displayed for retail sale other than in a package, any information that would have been required under clause 5 of this Standard on the label on the food if it was packaged, must be displayed on or in connection with the display of the food.
(4) This Division does not apply to food intended for immediate consumption which is prepared and sold from food premises and vending vehicles, including restaurants, take away outlets, caterers, or self-catering institutions.
(5) Deleted
(6) Deleted
5 Labelling of genetically modified food
The label on a package of genetically modified food must include the statement ‘genetically modified’ in conjunction with the name of that food or ingredient or processing aid.
Editorial note:
An example for single ingredient genetically modified foods:
Soy Flour
Genetically Modified
Soy Flour
From genetically modified soya beans
An example for genetically modified food ingredients:
Ingredients: Soy Protein Isolate (genetically modified); Maltodextrin; Vegetable Oil; Food Acid (332); Emulsifier (471); Vegetable Gum (407); Water Added.
6 Labelling of food which is not genetically modified
The label on a package of food which is not defined as ‘genetically modified food’ in clause 4 of this Standard is not required to include any statement about the genetic status of the food.
7 Additional labelling/information requirements
Notwithstanding the provisions of this Division, Column 4 of the Schedule may specify labelling or other information requirements in relation to food produced using gene technology listed in Column 3 of the Schedule where –
(a) the genetic modification has resulted in one or more significant composition or nutritional parameters having values outside the normal range of values for existing counterpart food not produced using gene technology;
(b) the level of anti-nutritional factors or natural toxicants are significantly different in comparison to the existing counterpart food not produced using gene technology;
(c) the food produced using gene technology contains a new factor known to cause an allergic response in particular sections of the population;
(d) the intended use of the food produced using gene technology is different to the existing counterpart food not produced using gene technology; or
(e) the genetic modification raises significant ethical, cultural and religious concerns regarding the origin of the genetic material used in the genetic modification.
