Member States shall ensure that all appropriate measures are taken to avoid adverse effects on human health and the environment which might arise from the contained use of GMMs. 2. To this end the user shall carry out an assessment of the contained uses as regards the risks to human health and the environment that these contained uses may incur, using as a minimum the elements of assessment and the procedure set out in Annex III, sections A and B. 3. The assessment referred to in paragraph 2 shall result in the final classification of the contained uses in four classes applying the procedure set out in Annex III, which will result in the assignment of containment levels in accordance with Article 6: Class 1: Class 2: Class 3: activities of no or negligible risk, that is to say activities for which level 1 containment is appropriate to protect human health the environment. as well as activities of low risk, that is to say activities for which level 2 containment is appropriate to protect human health as well as the environment. activities of moderate risk, that is to say activities level 3 containment is appropriate to protect the human health environment. for which as well as Class 4: activities of high risk, that is to say activities for which level 4 containment is appropriate to protect human health as well as the environment. is doubt as to which class 4. Where there is appropriate for the proposed contained use, the more stringent protective measures shall be applied unless sufficient evidence, in agreement with the competent authority, justifies the application of less stringent measures. 6. A record of the assessment referred to in paragraph (2) shall be kept by the user and made available in an appropriate form to the competent authority as part of the notification pursuant to Articles 7, 9 and 10 or on request. Article 6 1. The user shall apply, except to the extent that paragraph 2 of Annex IV allows other measures to be applied, the general principles and the appropriate containment and other protective measures set out in Annex IV corresponding to the class of the contained use, so as to keep workplace and environmental exposure to any GMMs to the lowest reasonably practicable level, and so that a high level of safety is ensured. 2. The assessment referred to in Article 5(2) and the containment and other protective measures applied shall be reviewed periodically, and forthwith if: (a) the containment measures applied are no longer adequate or the class assigned to the contained uses is no longer correct, or (b) there is reason to suspect that the assessment is no longer appropriate judged in the light of new scientific or technical knowledge. Article 7 When premises are to be used for the first time for contained uses, the user shall be required to submit to the competent authorities, before commencing such use, a notification containing at least the information listed in Annex V, Part A. Article 8 Following the notification referred to in Article 7, subsequent class 1 contained use may proceed without further notification. Users of GMMs in class 1 contained uses shall be required to keep the record of each assessment referred to in Article 5(6), which shall be made available to the competent authority on request. Article 9 5. The assessment referred to in paragraph (2) shall especially take into account the question of disposal of waste and effluents. Where appropriate, the necessary safety measures shall be implemented in order to protect human health and the environment. 1. For first and subsequent class 2 contained uses to be carried out in premises notified in accordance with Article 7, a notification containing the information listed in Annex V, Part B shall be submitted.

Recombinant nucleic acid techniques involving the formation of new combinations of genetic material by the insertion of nucleic acid molecules produced by whatever means outside an organism, into any virus, bacterial plasmid or other vector system and their incorporation into a host organism in which they do not naturally occur but in which they are capable of continued propagation. 2. Techniques involving the direct introduction into a micro-organism of heritable material prepared outside the micro-organism including micro-injection, macro-injection and micro-encapsulation. 3. Cell fusion or hybridisation techniques where live cells with new combinations of heritable genetic material are formed through the fusion of two or more cells by means of methods that do not occur naturally. PART B Techniques referred to in Article 2(b)(ii) which are not considered to result in genetic modification, on condition that they do not involve the use of recombinant-nucleic acid molecules or GMMs made by techniques/methods other than techniques/methods excluded by Annex II, PART A: (1) in vitro fertilisation; (2) natural processes such as: conjugation, transduction, transformation; (3) polyploidy induction. L 330/20 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 5. 12. 98 ANNEX II PART A Techniques or methods of genetic modification yielding micro-organisms to be excluded from the Directive on the condition that they do not involve the use of recombinant-nucleic acid molecules or GMMs other than those produced by one or more of the techniques/methods listed below: 1. Mutagenesis. 2. Cell fusion (including protoplast fusion) of prokaryotic species that exchange genetic material by known physiological processes. 3. Cell fusion (including protoplast fusion) of cells of any eukaryotic species, including production of hybridomas and plant cell fusions. 4. Self-cloning consisting in the removal of nucleic acid sequences from a cell of an organism which may or may not be followed by reinsertion of all or part of that nucleic acid (or a synthetic equivalent) with or without prior enzymic or mechanical steps, into cells of the same species or into cells of phylogenetically closely related species which can exchange genetic material by natural physiological processes where the resulting micro-organism is unlikely to cause disease to humans, animals or plants. Self-cloning may include the use of recombinant vectors with an extended history of safe use in the particular micro-organisms.

(to be completed in accordance with the procedures in Article 20a) PART C Types of GMMs which meet the criteria listed in Part B:. (to be completed in accordance with the procedure in Article 21) 5. 12. 98 EN Official Journal of the European Communities L 330/21 ANNEX III PRINCIPLES TO BE FOLLOWED FOR THE ASSESSMENT REFERRED TO IN ARTICLE 5(2) This Annex describes in general terms the elements to be considered and the procedure to be followed to perform the assessment referred to in Article 5(2). It will be supplemented, as regards in particular section B, by guidance notes to be developed by the Commission in accordance with the procedure set out in Article 21. These guidance notes shall be completed no later than 5 June 2000. A. ELEMENTS OF ASSESSMENT 1. The following should be considered as potentially harmful effects: — disease to humans including allergenic or toxic effects, — disease to animals or plants, — deleterious effects due to the impossibility of treating a disease or providing an effective prophylaxis, — deleterious effects due to establishment or dissemination in the environment, — deleterious effects due to the natural transfer of inserted genetic material to other organisms. 2. The assessment referred to in Article 5(2) should be based on the following: (a) the identification of any potentially harmful effects, in particular those associated with: (i) the recipient micro-organism; (ii) the genetic material inserted (originating from the donor organism); (iii) the vector; (iv) the donor micro-organism (as long as the donor micro-organism is used during the operation); (v) the resulting GMM; (b) the characteristics of the activity; (c) the severity of the potentially harmful effects; (d) the likelihood of the potentially harmful effects being realised. B. PROCEDURE 3. The first stage in the assessment process should be to identify the harmful properties of the recipient and, where appropriate, the donor micro-organism, any harmful properties associated with the vector or inserted material, including any alteration in the recipient’s existing properties. 4. In general, only GMMs which show the following characteristics would be considered appropriate for inclusion in class 1 as defined in Article 5: (i) the recipient or parental micro-organism is unlikely to cause disease to humans, animals or plants (1); (1) This would only apply to animals and plants in the environment likely to be exposed. L 330/22 EN Official Journal of the European Communities 5. 12. 98 (ii) the nature of the vector and the insert is such that they do not endow the GMM with a phenotype likely to cause disease to humans, animals or plants (1), or likely to cause deleterious effects in the environment; (iii) the GMM is unlikely to cause disease to humans, animals or plants (1) and is unlikely to have deleterious effects on the environment. 5. In order to obtain the necessary information to implement this process the user may firstly take into account relevant Community legislation (in particular Council Directive 90/679/EEC (2)). International or national classification schemes (e. g. WHO, NIH, etc. ) and their revisions due to new scientific knowledge and technical progress may also be considered. These schemes concern natural micro-organisms and as such are usually based on the ability of micro-organisms to cause disease to humans, animals or plants and on the severity and transmissibility of the disease likely to be caused. Directive 90/679/EEC classifies micro-organisms, as biological agents, into four classes of risk on the basis of potential effects on a healthy human adult. These classes of risk can be used as guidance to the categorisation of the contained use activities in the four classes of risk referred to in Article 5(3). The user may also take into consideration classification schemes referring to plant and animal pathogens (which are usually established on a national basis). The abovementioned classification schemes give only a provisional indication of the risk class of the activity and the corresponding set of containment and control measures. 6. The hazard identification process carried out in accordance with paragraphs 3 to 5, should lead to the identification of the level of risk associated with the GMM. 7. Selection of the containment and other protective measures should then be made on the basis of the level or risk associated with the GMMs together with consideration of: (i) the characteristics of the environment likely to be exposed (e. g. whether in the environment likely to be exposed to the GMMs there are known biota which can be adversely affected by the micro-organisms used in the contained use activity); (ii) the characteristics of the activity (e. g. its scale; nature); (iii) any non-standard operations (e. g. the inoculation of animals with GMMs; equipment likely to generate aerosols). Consideration of items (i) to (iii) for the particular activity may increase, reduce or leave unaltered the level of risk associated with the GMM as identified under paragraph 6. 8. The analysis carried out as described above will finally lead to the assignment of the activity to one of the classes described in Article 5(3). 9. The final classification of the contained use should be confirmed by reviewing the completed assessment referred to in Article 5(2). (1) This would only apply to animals and plants in the environment likely to be exposed. (2) OJ L 374, 31. 12. 1990, p. 1.

These tables present the normal minimum requirements and measures necessary for each level of containment. Containment is also achieved through the use of good work practices, training, containment equipment and special installation design. For all activities involving GMMs the principles of good microbiological practice and the following principles of good occupational safety and hygiene, shall apply: (i) to keep workplace and environmental exposure to any GMM to the lowest practicable level; (ii) to exercise engineering control measures at source and to supplement these with appropriate personal protective clothing and equipment when necessary; (iii) to test adequately and maintain control measures and equipment; (iv) to test, when necessary, for the presence of viable process organisms outside the primary physical containment; (v) to provide appropriate training of personnel; (vi) to establish biological safety committees or subcommittees, if required; (vii) to formulate and implement local codes of practice for the safety of personnel, as required; (viii) where appropriate to display biohazard signs; (ix) to provide washing and decontamination facilities for personnel; (x) to keep adequate records; (xi) to prohibit eating, drinking, smoking, applying cosmetics or the storing of food for human consumption in the work area; (xii) to prohibit mouth pipetting; (xiii) to provide written standard operating procedures where appropriate to ensure safety; (xiv) to have effective disinfectants and specified disinfection procedures available in case of spillage of GMMs; (xv) to provide safe storage for contaminated laboratory equipment and materials, when appropriate. 2. The titles of the tables are indicative: Table I A presents minimum requirements for laboratory activities. Table I B presents additions to and modifications of Table I A for glasshouse/growth-room activities involving GMMs. Table I C presents additions to and modifications of Table I A for activities with animals involving GMMs. Table II presents minimum requirements for activities other than laboratory activities. In some particular cases, it might be necessary to apply a combination of measures, from Table I A and Table II, of the same level. In some cases users may, with the agreement of the competent authority, not apply a specification under a particular containment level or combine specifications from two different levels. In these tables “optional” means that the user may apply these measures on a case-by-case basis, subject to the assessment referred to in Article 5(2). 3. Member states may, in implementing this Annex, incorporate in addition the general principles in paragraphs 1 and 2 in the following tables for the sake of clarity of the requirements.
