The scope and significance of the Directive (EU) 2015/412, and also its impact are analysed in this chapter from a strictly legal perspective. This involves, firstly, a comparative analysis of the previous regulation (contained in Directive 2001/18/EC) and that recently approved via the aforementioned Directive. Secondly, the text will address the degree of possibility of Member States being able to restrict or prohibit growth of GMOs in their territory and its compatibility with the principle of subsidiarity, and the compelling grounds on which Member States may base their restriction or prohibition. Finally, in the concluding section, there is an analysis of the new direction of GMO regulation in the EU and its (in)coherence with European Court of Justice case law, with a forward-looking perspective.
