Who will advise the GTR and the Ministerial Council?
It is proposed that three statutory advisory committees will also be created to provide advice to both the GTR and the Ministerial Council. The proposed advisory committees include: • A Gene Technology Technical Advisory Committee which will advise the Ministerial Council and the GTR on risk assessments for individual applications; • A Gene Technology Ethics Committee which will advise the Ministerial Council and the GTR on ethical matters arising in the regulatory framework; and • A Gene Technology Community Consultative Committee which will advise the Ministerial Council and the GTR on general concerns.
