The German Parliaments has unanimously voted against the cloning of animals on May 8. 2015. The motion includes cloning of animals for food production and labeling of cloned animals, their offspring and products derived therefrom. With its motion, the German parliament challenges an EU proposal which prohibits cloning in food production but not the import of offspring of clones and their meat.
