This document provides an overview and summary of the European Group on Ethics in Science and New Technologies (EGE) opinion on the ethical aspects of animal cloning for food supply. The EGE conducted a 10-month review process including expert hearings and a public consultation. In its conclusion, the EGE has doubts about whether cloning animals for food is ethically justified given current animal welfare and health issues. It does not see convincing arguments to justify producing food from cloned animals and their offspring at this time. The EGE provides several recommendations that would need to be met if food from cloned animals were introduced to European markets relating to food safety, animal welfare, traceability, labeling, biodiversity, public perception, and more.
