ووفقا لالمحامي العام Bobek, الكائنات التي حصلت عليها الطفرات هي, في المبدأ, يعفى من الالتزامات المنصوص عليها في التوجيه الكائنات المحورة وراثيا.

Executive Summary: The advent of gene editing as a plant breeding method presents important opportunities for making very precise changes in genomes to obtain desired traits or remove undesirable traits. As with all newly developed plants, plants with genetic changes obtained through genome editing are subject to existing plant-variety development systems. In as far as those genetic changes are indistinguishable from what can be obtained using conventional strategies, we recommend the resulting plants are subject only to existing systems for variety development. Only when genetic changes go well beyond what can be obtained with conventional breeding strategies might the resulting plants also be subject to biosafety (e.g. الكائنات المعدلة وراثيا) قوانين.
