Call for New Zealand government to act on nanotechnology challenges - NanoWerk, USA
University of Canterbury physicist Associate Professor Simon Brown hopes a report published this week will spur the New Zealand Government to face up to the challenges nanotechnology poses for this country.
The report, Nanotechnology — here and now, which Professor Brown was involved in editing, has been published on the Ministry of Research, Science and Technology (MoRST) website. It details more than 70 actions that need to be taken by the Government in order to address the challenges presented by nanotechnology.
One key recommendation is that the Government should institute a labelling system which allows consumers to identify products containing nanomaterials and that it should maintain a public database of nanoproducts.
