This is about EMC - Engineered Meat Consternation?

As I understand it, UK law requires that government permission is 
required before marketing products where cloning is involved and the 
product must be marked. Neither was obtained or done in this case.

An official statement says that the product concerned poses no known 
health risk, but there are animal welfare concerns over the actual 
cloning process, which took place outside the UK and the EU. I gather 
this refers to the high failure rate and the poor health of some clones.
