At the end of 2014, nine associations sent a letter to the Prime Minister requesting, firstly, the repeal of Article D531-2 of the French Environment Code as it exempts herbicide-tolerant varieties (HTV) from the regulations on genetically modified organisms (GMOs) and, secondly, a moratorium on these HTVs.
The draft Order aims to remove the varieties resulting from in vitro random mutagenesis consisting in subjecting plant cells cultivated in vitro to chemical or physical mutagenic agents from the French Official Catalogue of Species and Varieties of Cultivated Crops.
