Philippine law to punish makers of harmful GMOs sought

The Third World Network (TWN) said the government’s current rules allowing victims to seek redress for harm caused by GMOs have been purely administrative remedies (with no civil and criminal liabilities) and could not provide sufficient relief for victims. In a paper titled, ”Liability and redress in GMOs in the Philippines,” the TWN said even laws on criminal and civil liabilities were not prepared to confront GMO-related disputes since the kind of damage caused by GMOs have been uncommon.
