    100% support your gene editing policy changes. As a scientist, I feel NZ is miles behind with our research due to current legislation.

    I am a Horticultural consultant and business mentor, (with an Agricultural background). I strongly support gene editing. We could have grasses that produce the same dry matter with less water and nutrients. We could have more pest & disease resistant cultivars. If you haven't read 'Seeds of Science' by Mark Lynas I suggest you do. He is a recipient of the science writer award for his book 'Six Degrees' on climate change - but 'Seeds of Science is better'. Politicians world wide are holding us back.

    NZ should revisit the ban on GMOs it is a useful set of tools with valid applications.
