Q. Which organisation voted to ban the cloning of all farm animals and sale of cloned livestock, on 11th September 2015?- Published on 13 Sep 15a. European Commission
b. European Union
c. OECD
d. None of the above
ANSWER: European Commission
European Commission has not only banned cloning of farm animals, but sale of cloned livestock as well as offspring and products derived from them. This is because the technique of cloning has not advanced and animal welfare should be respected. High mortality rates at development stages of cloning raises animal welfare and ethical concerns.
