A proposal to authorise the planting of 1507 maize was discussed at the European Union (EU) General Affairs Council on 11 February. The UK indicated its support for authorisation, given the favourable scientific opinions of the European Food Safety Authority and the UK Advisory Committee on Releases to the Environment. Variations in the level of Bt protein are to be expected and are not in themselves a cause for concern. Whilst the protein level could have a bearing on the potential for pest resistance and theoretically on the risk to non-target Lepidoptera, these considerations have been adequately addressed by the risk-management measures that will be provided for in the EU authorising decision. The herbicide glufosinate will not be used on 1507 maize crops in the EU, so its effect on Bt protein levels is not a factor in this context.
