Point in time view as at 13/10/2009.
There are outstanding changes not yet made to Commission Decision of 13 October 2009 establishing standard reporting formats for presenting the monitoring results of the deliberate release into the environment of genetically modified organisms, as or in products, for the purpose of placing on the market, pursuant to Directive 2001/18/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council (notified under document C(2009) 7680) (Text with EEA relevance) (2009/770/EC). Any changes that have already been made to the legislation appear in the content and are referenced with annotations.
Changes and effects yet to be applied by the editorial team are only applicable when viewing the latest version or prospective version of legislation. They are therefore not accessible when viewing legislation as at a specific point in time. To view the ‘Changes to Legislation’ information for this provision return to the latest version view using the options provided in the ‘What Version’ box above.
Case-specific monitoring will be carried out in accordance with the conditions set out in the consent/authorisation and in accordance with the monitoring plan specified in the notification.
General surveillance for unanticipated or unforeseen adverse effects should also be considered as a compulsory part of the monitoring plan.
Adverse effects should be considered in the light of the crop, the new trait, the receiving environment as well as the conclusions of the environmental risk assessment which is carried out on a case-by-case basis. The following constitutes a non-exhaustive list of effects and consequences or outcomes that could result in adverse environmental effects:
persistence and invasiveness, selective advantage or disadvantage, including:
increased occurrence of volunteers,
increased establishment of the genetically modified (GM) plant outside of the fields,
increased spread, persistence and accumulation of the GM plant in the environment (including out-crossing with wild relatives);
altered gene transfer:
potential reduction of pollination,
increased frequency of horizontal gene transfer from plant to microbial populations;
interaction between GMP and non-target organisms:
direct/indirect impact on non-target organisms,
changes of susceptibility to non-target pests and diseases,
impact on habitat diversity and biodiversity;
changes in biogeochemical processes;
impact on human and animal health resulting from environmental exposure.

This timeline shows the different versions taken from EUR-Lex before exit day and during the implementation period as well as any subsequent versions created after the implementation period as a result of changes made by UK legislation.
The dates for the EU versions are taken from the document dates on EUR-Lex and may not always coincide with when the changes came into force for the document.
For any versions created after the implementation period as a result of changes made by UK legislation the date will coincide with the earliest date on which the change (e.g an insertion, a repeal or a substitution) that was applied came into force.
