Research and Innovation did not have the information requested.

Dear Madam, dear Sir,

Under the right of access to documents, as provided for in Regulation 1049/2001, I am requesting information and documents on the following matters:

1. Are any open-air tests of techniques or products using new breeding technologies or biotechnologies for pest control purposes (including new genomic techniques, precision bred organisms, gene silencing, gene driving, RNAi-based pesticides, etc) being considered, planned and/or realised on the territory of the EU?

2. Are any open-air tests of techniques or products using new breeding technologies or biotechnologies for pest control purposes (including new genomic techniques, precision bred organisms, gene silencing, RNAi-based pesticides, etc) being considered, planned and/or realised outside the territory of the EU and to which the EU contributes, in whole or in part (financially or otherwise) ?

If so, please provide all relevant information and documents within the meaning of Article 3(a) of Regulation 1049/2001.

Yours sincerely,

Julia Thibord
