(Review of the adoption of Publication No. 246 of the Order of the People's Government of the Northern Lakes Region, 23 May 2003)

In order to strengthen the management of genetic biosecurity in agriculture, to guarantee human health and flora and fauna, microbiological safety, to protect the ecological environment, to develop this approach in the light of the Regulations on Genetic Safety in Agriculture (hereinafter referred to as the Regulations).
Article 2 conducts research on agricultural genetics in this province, units and individuals involved in testing, production, processing, operation and import and export activities, and must comply with this approach.
Article 3. Provincial agricultural administration authorities are responsible for overseeing the management of genetic biosecurity throughout the province.
The Government's agricultural administration is responsible for monitoring the management of agricultural genetic bios in the current administration.
More than the people at the district level are responsible for the management of food supervision and are governed by law for the health safety of genetic foods.
Article IV. The Government of the people at the district level should guarantee the necessary funding for the management of genetic biosecurity in agriculture and incorporate the current annual financial budget.
Article 5
Any units and individuals have the obligation to maintain human health and flora and fauna, microbiological safety, protect the ecological environment, and have the right to investigate and prosecute violations of the management of genetic biosecurity in agriculture.
Article 7. Units engaged in research and testing on agro-gend genetics should be established by the Leading Group on Agricultural Genetic Biosafety, which is headed by a corporate representative. The Safety Leadership Group should report annually to provincial agricultural administrations on the content and progress of research and testing on genetics in agriculture and the inspection and supervision of provincial agricultural administrative authorities.
Article 8. Agricultural genetic biological tests should generally be three phases of intermediate tests, environmental release and productive testing. Intermediation tests, scales, time and scope of environmental release and productive tests are carried out in accordance with the standards established by the Department of State's agricultural administrative authorities.
Article 9. The agricultural genetic biotechnical test needs to be transferred from the previous test phase to the next test phase, and the testing unit should submit a review request to the provincial agricultural administration to review eligibility, with approval by the Department of State's agricultural administrative authorities, which may be transferred to the next test phase.
The pre-paragraph application by the test unit shall provide complete material in accordance with article 15 of the Regulations.
