Title: Discussion Paper on a Policy Framework for Nanotechnology
Author:Susan Holtz
Date: March 2007
Description: The policy challenges for nanotechnology are enormous, and currently are dominated by a lack both of scientific information and also of basic policy tools, including definitions and metrology; a legal and regulatory framework; and structures and resources for public engagement. This report presents CIELAP's analysis of the issue as well as key elements that CIELAP believes must be addressed in any Canadian policy framework for nanotechnology.
