Questions continue to be raised about the role the Government and its agencies played in the "corngate" incident revealed in Nicky Hager's book Seeds of Distrust, on 10 July 2002.

Greenpeace analysed the allegations in the book, the papers released by the Government, and the media statements made since the book was released.

We have no doubt that corn contaminated by a genetically engineered (GE) variety, was planted, harvested, sold and eaten in New Zealand in 2001.

The Government knew about the contamination at the time, covered up the incident, and continues the cover up.

The following pages outline the evidence of contamination and of a Government cover-up:
