information is available on the interactions of the recipient plant species in the ecosystems in which the experimental and/or agricultural releases are scheduled,
scientific data is available on the safety to human health and the environment of experimental releases involving genetically modified plants of the same recipient plant species,
the inserted sequences and their expression products should be safe for human health and the environment under the conditions of the experimental release,
the inserted sequences have been well characterized,
all the inserted sequences are integrated into the plant nuclear genome,
all the releases are for an a priori specified programme of work,
all the releases take place within an a priori specified time period.
