According to FSANZ CEO, Steve McCutcheon, the potato was modified through insertion of genetic sequences of potato and its wild varieties. Upon assessment of FSANZ, they have not found any public health and safety concerns regarding the biotech potato. To come up with a decision whether to adopt, amend, or reject the application, they are asking for public review until September 30, 2016.
