Is the Genetically Manipulated Rose trial already underway? Are Australian Roses in Silvan making sure there is no gene flow from the rose, no insects coming and going from their greenhouse?

It's a great honour and privilege to serve the people of the Lyster Ward. I was voted onto council in 2005 and have been re-elected twice since with a Greens record 58.93% primary vote in 2012. I'm passionate about the community and I enjoy working with them to shape an even better future. This term on council I will be representing the various township groups in Lyster, Belgrave Hub Project Steering Committee Birdsland Advisory Committee, Burrinja, Eastern Regional Libraries Corp, Eastern Transport Coalition, Fire Management Committee, Graffiti Working Group and the Municipal Emergency Management Committee. In 2009 I was elected as Chairperson of the Eastern Transport Coalition and continue to serve in that role. In 2011 I was elected President of the Victorian Local Governance Association after serving two years as Treasurer. In Dec 2013 I stood down as President as I was preselected to run for the Greens in Eastern Metropolitan in the 2014 state election.

Have you been able to find ut if the trials have started? I have repeatedly asked the OGTR this and other questions and have received no reply - this despite the promise on their website to answer all queries within 48 hours.
Last I heard (2 weeks ago) the roses were still in a warehouse in the city but it's very hard to get an answer to that question. If this trial is so benign, as the OGTR and Florigene would have us believe, why all the mystery?
It seems as if the roses will be coming to the Shire in July. Watch this space.....
