We welcome the responses received to this consultation and have considered all feedback by those directly and indirectly affected by the topics covered. The government remains committed to the implementation of the Genetic Technology (Precision Breeding) Act 2023, and the outcome of this consultation will inform and shape the implementation of this Act within the Plant Varieties and Seeds policy area.

We will continue to work on the implementation of the Act, and in doing so, we will ensure that information on precision bred plant varieties is transparent, accessible to all, and user friendly. This is in recognition of the feedback stating the importance of providing information to support transparency through the supply chains and to support decision making.

We understand the importance of providing information in multiple, accessible formats throughout the supply chain but that any measures to support this, such as labelling, should be balanced to minimise the cost to businesses. We will use the feedback received to inform future decisions on the inclusion of precision bred status in mandatory labelling of precision bred seed and other Plant Reproductive Material. Furthermore, we will work with other teams in Defra, other Government departments, and industry to ensure that information on precision bred plant varieties is provided in a meaningful and effective way.

Between 17 February 2025 and 14 April 2025, we consulted on鈥痶he proposed Plant Varieties and Seeds framework for precision bred plant varieties in England, including the proposed Precision Bred Plant Variety List for England, and the provision of information on precision bred seed and other plant reproductive material.鈥�聽
