The document summarizes the negotiation history and key requirements of the Supplementary Protocol on Liability and Redress to the Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety. It discusses the 15-year negotiation process to develop international rules on liability for damage from living modified organisms (LMOs). The final text adopted in 2010 defines damage and outlines administrative procedures for governments to address damage to biodiversity from LMOs. It does not make private civil liability binding but leaves room for countries to develop domestic laws on civil liability.
Following developments on the implementation of the European Liability Directive, Pierre Sonigo explores its implications for captives and operators in the region.
Access and Benefit sharing from Genetic ResourcesKaran Veer Singh
Millions of people depend on biological (genetic) resources and traditional knowledge for their livelihoods. While the concept of an access and benefit sharing (ABS) regime is new, access to biological resources and transfer of associated traditional knowledge is centuries old.

Environmental laws, propounded in order to hold polluters liable for remediation, are often in conflict with bankruptcy laws’ general principles of a “fresh start” and the ability to shed certain financial burdens. Bankruptcy laws automatic stay is one such protection – the enjoinment of parties from taking actions against the debtor upon the filing of the bankruptcy petition – that is sometimes trumped by environmental law concerns, namely, the police and regulatory exception to the automatic stay. This webinar addresses the tensions between bankruptcy and environmental law, and examines how bankruptcy law deals with property contamination issues, the sale or abandonment of contaminated property, successor liability, environmental cleanup claims, and dischargeability of governmental claims.

Why You Should Replace Windows 11 with Nitrux Linux 3.5.0 for enhanced perfor...SOFTTECHHUB
The choice of an operating system plays a pivotal role in shaping our computing experience. For decades, Microsoft's Windows has dominated the market, offering a familiar and widely adopted platform for personal and professional use. However, as technological advancements continue to push the boundaries of innovation, alternative operating systems have emerged, challenging the status quo and offering users a fresh perspective on computing.
One such alternative that has garnered significant attention and acclaim is Nitrux Linux 3.5.0, a sleek, powerful, and user-friendly Linux distribution that promises to redefine the way we interact with our devices. With its focus on performance, security, and customization, Nitrux Linux presents a compelling case for those seeking to break free from the constraints of proprietary software and embrace the freedom and flexibility of open-source computing.
Securing your Kubernetes cluster_ a step-by-step guide to success !KatiaHIMEUR1
Today, after several years of existence, an extremely active community and an ultra-dynamic ecosystem, Kubernetes has established itself as the de facto standard in container orchestration. Thanks to a wide range of managed services, it has never been so easy to set up a ready-to-use Kubernetes cluster.
However, this ease of use means that the subject of security in Kubernetes is often left for later, or even neglected. This exposes companies to significant risks.
In this talk, I'll show you step-by-step how to secure your Kubernetes cluster for greater peace of mind and reliability.
Climate Impact of Software Testing at Nordic Testing DaysKari Kakkonen
My slides at Nordic Testing Days 6.6.2024
Climate impact / sustainability of software testing discussed on the talk. ICT and testing must carry their part of global responsibility to help with the climat warming. We can minimize the carbon footprint but we can also have a carbon handprint, a positive impact on the climate. Quality characteristics can be added with sustainability, and then measured continuously. Test environments can be used less, and in smaller scale and on demand. Test techniques can be used in optimizing or minimizing number of tests. Test automation can be used to speed up testing.

zkStudyClub - Reef: Fast Succinct Non-Interactive Zero-Knowledge Regex ProofsAlex Pruden
This paper presents Reef, a system for generating publicly verifiable succinct non-interactive zero-knowledge proofs that a committed document matches or does not match a regular expression. We describe applications such as proving the strength of passwords, the provenance of email despite redactions, the validity of oblivious DNS queries, and the existence of mutations in DNA. Reef supports the Perl Compatible Regular Expression syntax, including wildcards, alternation, ranges, capture groups, Kleene star, negations, and lookarounds. Reef introduces a new type of automata, Skipping Alternating Finite Automata (SAFA), that skips irrelevant parts of a document when producing proofs without undermining soundness, and instantiates SAFA with a lookup argument. Our experimental evaluation confirms that Reef can generate proofs for documents with 32M characters; the proofs are small and cheap to verify (under a second).

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software FuzzingAftab Hussain
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

Elevating Tactical DDD Patterns Through Object CalisthenicsDorra BARTAGUIZ
After immersing yourself in the blue book and its red counterpart, attending DDD-focused conferences, and applying tactical patterns, you're left with a crucial question: How do I ensure my design is effective? Tactical patterns within Domain-Driven Design (DDD) serve as guiding principles for creating clear and manageable domain models. However, achieving success with these patterns requires additional guidance. Interestingly, we've observed that a set of constraints initially designed for training purposes remarkably aligns with effective pattern implementation, offering a more ‘mechanical’ approach. Let's explore together how Object Calisthenics can elevate the design of your tactical DDD patterns, offering concrete help for those venturing into DDD for the first time!

2. Negotiation History
Requirements of the
Supplementary Protocol
Relationship to Cartagena & CBD
Other liability treaties success-
failure
Summary and Issues to Consider
Going Forward
3. • 1996 Ad Hoc Open-Ended Working Group
on Biosafety meeting in Aarhus Denmark
• “One-pager” refers to Article XIV of CBD
“Examine Issues”
• G-77/China insisted on liability being
part of protocol; Africa most insistent
• Argentina parted ways with G-77/China
• Divisive issue when Protocol was being
negotiated – continued to be contentious
and controversial for 15 years.
4. • 2000 - Cartagena Protocol postpones it --
Article 27 says to hold future negotiations
on the topic
• “The [COP] shall, at its first meeting,
adopt a process [for]
• Elaboration of international rules and
procedures in the field of liability and
redress for damage,
• Resulting from transboundary movements
of LMOs,
• Analysing and taking due account of the
ongoing processes in international law on
these matters, and shall …
• Complete this process within four years.”
5. • Numerous discussions at international
meetings related to Protocol
• February 2004,COP-MOP 1 appoint Ad
Hoc Expert Working Group.
• Expert Working Group met 5 times
from 2005-2008.
• Friends of the Chair working groups
further refined issues (“contact
groups”) resolving contentious issues.
• Last two meetings – Kuala Lumpur
and Nagoya – gave NKLSP its name.
• Final text approved in Nagoya in 2010
at Cartagena Protocol COP-MOP 5.
6. Binding supplemental protocol
Administrative procedures to address
damages to biological diversity from
LMOs, rights belong to governments
Civil liability also binding or just
guidelines?
Meet the objectives of Article 27 and
CBD Article 14, Rio Principle 13
Compact from Seed Industry played a
key role in brokering reasonable
compromise – standing ovation
7. Administrative procedures to address
damages to biological diversity from
LMOs – Governments will enforce
Private civil liability not made
binding.
Meet the objectives of Article 27
without imposing undue burdens on
innovation in agricultural
biotechnology and grain trade.
8. “Damage” is significant adverse effect on
the conservation and sustainable use of
biological diversity - measurable taking into
account scientifically established baseline
Baseline requires inventory of species-
habitats that could take years to adequately
compile.
International liability precedent of Canada-
US “Trail Smelter” case and NKLSP defined
“significant” as:
Long term or permanent change not redressed
through natural recovery
Qualitative and quantitative changes adversely
affecting components of biological diversity
Reducing ecosystem/biodiversity goods/services
9. First multilateral environmental
agreement to define damage to
biodiversity
Example – Chinese native rice displaced,
lost to future generations of valuable
genes?
Confirmation of value of genetic resources
and need to protect them from all threats
(even if this is just one of many threats)
Industry recognized long-range value of
protecting the genetic resources that
modern plant breeders rely upon.
Biotech seed industry’s innovative power
imparts additional value to the genetic
resources in wide range of species (even
microbes).
10. 1992 Convention on Biological Diversity
objectives: 1) conservation, 2) sustainable
use, and 3) equitable distribution of
benefit and “appropriate access to genetic
resources”
CDB Art. 14 suggested that the parties
“examine the issues” of liability, except
where internal issue.
Rio Principle 13 has similar suggestion.
Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety must
serve objectives of CBD.
Cartagena Protocol on Biosafety, ten years
after its text, created a text on liability.
11. “Reasonable actions to:
Prevent, minimize, contain, mitigate, or otherwise
avoid damage, as appropriate’
Restore biological diversity through actions to be
undertaken in the following order of preference:
Restoration of biological diversity to the condition
that existed before the damage occurred…
“Restoration by replacing the biological diversity
with other components of biological diversity for
the same or for another type of use either at the
same or, as appropriate, at an alternative
location.”
12. “Where relevant information … indicates
there is sufficient likelihood that damage
will result if timely response measures are
not take, …”
Examples – chemical storage tank in bad
condition and likely to leak or started
leaking and is likely to migrate to water
body; tank is leaking, enters aquifer but
damage is not significant yet.
Oil Spill in Gulf of Mexico -- oil leaking
before damage to birds, beaches, etc… but
only a matter of time (need to respond)
13. Parties can require operators to take certain actions in
the event of damage
Inform the competent authority
Evaluate damage
Take response measures
Competent authority can take certain actions:
Identify operator which caused damage
Evaluate damage and determine response measures to
be taken
The competent authority has right to recover from the
operator costs for evaluating damage and any response
measure
Decisions requiring response measures should be
reasoned and include the opportunity for
administrative or judicial review.
Parties may assess whether response measures are
already addressed by their domestic law on civil
liability
14. Causation – need a causal link
between the damage and the LMO (in
accordance with domestic law)
Exemptions – can be provided for in
domestic law
Time limits – can be provided for in
domestic law
Financial limits and financial security
– can be provided for in domestic law
15. • Who will be liable?
• Text: Operator is defined as “any person”
• In direct or indirect control of the LMO
• [Including] inter alia, 1) the permit holder,
• 2) Person who placed the LMO on the market,
• 3) Developer (i.e., biotech seed company),
• 4) Producer (farmers),
• 5) Notifier, ???
• 6) Exporter, importer, carrier, or supplier.”
• as appropriate and as determined by domestic
law,
• This gave the International Grain Trade
Coalition qualms during the negotiation
process.
16. Provide for rules and procedures that
address damage
Apply existing domestic law
Develop new civil liability rules and
procedures
Do a combination of the two
Can address “material or personal
damage”
Shall address: (1) damage (2) standard of
liability (3) channeling of liability and (4)
right to bring claims
17. LMOs, not products of LMOs (i.e.,
food, feed etc not in scope)
“Traditional” Damages (personal
or property injury) that are do
not relate to conservation and
sustainable use of biological
diversity (CSUB)
Taking also into account risks to
human health linked to CSUB)
Domestically produced LMOs
18. Comes into force after 40 countries
have ratified it.
Signature and ratification are not
implementation – not self.
implementing (but also may not
require legal actions).
To date, 54 countries have signed; 14
have ratified.
19. Opened for signature 7 March 2011.
Stayed open for signature until 6 March
2012 for 166 parties to Biosafety Protocol
54 Nations have signed but still need 40
ratifications… are they well on their way?
Ratified/Accession – 14 so far…

(1971 Fund, the 1992 Fund and 2003
Supplementary Fund) – operating but
inadequate?
IAEA Convention on Nuclear Incidents (But
Nordics reluctant to bring Chernobyl
claims)
Basel Convention Hazardous Waste.
Liability Protocol needs 20 ratifications
Signatories: 13, Parties: 11 (7 from Africa)
Dead in water?
Provisional application ok between parties that
have ratified, before entry into force?
Compact may enable 1st successful liability
protocol.

October 11 2005 @ 09:37 AM PDT Viewed: 954 times Court Orders Public Oversight of 'Biopharm' Experiment in Hawaii;Environmental Review Required for Genetically Engineered Algae ProjectKAILUA-KONA, Hawaii, Oct. 11 /U.S. Newswire/ -- Yesterday, citizen groups 'Ohana Pale Ke Ao, Kohanaiki 'Ohana, GMO Free Hawai'i, and Sierra Club, Hawai'i Chapter, represented by Earthjustice, obtained a court judgment in their favor in a lawsuit they brought in the Circuit Court of the State of Hawai'i, Third Circuit, challenging the state Board of Agriculture's approval of a project to mass-produce potentially dangerous genetically engineered algae on the Kona coast of the Island of Hawai'i. Circuit Court Judge Elizabeth A. Strance agreed with the citizen groups that the Board was required to comply with the environmental review process under the Hawai'i Environmental Policy Act (HEPA) before approving the project. The Court granted the groups' request for a judgment declaring that, at minimum, an environmental assessment (EA) was required for the project, and that the Board's approval without such review was invalid.
