The
proposed rule for the National Bioengineered Food Disclosure Standard made its
way to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) December 26. The rule would
require GMO ingredients in food products to be disclosed via a label,
on-package symbol or an electronic label.
The
plan is to be finalized by July 29. Typically, rules are under review at OMB
for a 90-day or 120-day period, but at times take longer.
