House of Lords criticical of food industry and its use of nanotech

A House of Lords report is critical of the food industry’s lack of transparency with its research into the uses of nanotechnologies.

UK House of Lords media release: http://www.parliament.uk/parliamentary_committees/lords_press_notices/pn080110st.cfm

and for report: http://www.parliament.uk/parliamentary_committees/lords_s_t_select/nanotechfood.cfm

Reports states that appearing to be secretive about its research “is exactly the type of behaviour which may bring about the public reaction it is trying to avert.”
