Biological Qualifier Frequently Asked Questions

Several drafts of the Proposal for a Biological Qualifier have been published evoking

extensive and detailed response. Attempts were made to incorporate this feedback into the

Proposal but this resulted in a large and unwieldy document that aroused even more

response. It was therefore decided to produce a proposal that succinctly but clearly outlined

the proposed BQ scheme, but draft a document which addressed the issues that had been

raised as Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ). This is intended as a living document,

regularly updated to reflect current concerns and questions.
