On 7 February 2008 EFSA held a technical meeting in Brussels with its Stakeholder Consultative Platform on its draft Opinion on animal cloning. The meeting gave an opportunity for experts to brief stakeholders face-to-face on the draft Opinion and to have an exchange of views and feedback, as part of EFSA’s ongoing public consultation on the draft Opinion. The consultation is open until 25 February 2008. A report of the meeting will be published next week, while the agenda, participants list and presentations made at the meeting are already available.
