Locatie veldproeven mag niet geheim worden gehouden

februari 19, 2009
Greenpeace en Biologica zijn blij met de beslissing van het Europese Hof over de locatie van proefvelden. Volgens Het Hof mag de locatie van veldproeven met gentechgewassen niet geheim gehouden worden. Het Hof baseert zich op internationale afspraken die zijn vastgelegd in het Arhus-verdrag.

Het Hof deed deze uitspraak naar aanleiding van vragen vanuit Frankrijk. De Fransen wilde weten of het binnen Europese en wereldwijde afspraken past om de locatie van een veldproef geheim te houden. Vorig jaar stelde de Nederlandse Raad van State vergelijkbare vragen naar aanleiding van juridische conflicten tussen Greenpeace en VROM. Greenpeace voert met Biologica juridische procedures tegen gentechproefvelden met aardappelen (BasF, AVEBE en Wageningen Universiteit) en mais (Monsanto en Pioneer).
