GEAC has power only to withdraw permission

How do you propose to deal with conflict of interest in GEAC?


Around three months ago a document called Declaration of Independence was prepared. Scientists who are members of GEAC were asked to sign it. The declaration states that a scientist can take decisions independently. If a GEAC member is involved in developing crops and some valid objections are raised, he/ she should just quit. They should not wait to be asked to prove that they do not have a conflict of interest.
