" NOTE: Owen Paterson claimed in a Radio 4 Today programme interview, "Over the last 15 years… every attempt to deploy Golden Rice has been thwarted and in that time seven million children have gone blind or died. Young people will wake up this morning able to see and they will go to bed blind for life. Some of them will die today." In his speech he made a similar, although slightly less extreme, claim. These articles show that his claims about Golden Rice are without merit."
