Résumé
-> At first, innovations are also associated with uncertainties regarding their benefits and risks.-> The precautionary principle enables robust decision-making whilst taking uncertainties into account.-> These decisions are intended to protect health and the environment without impeding technical progress.-> The precautionary principle is not yet enshrined in law. However, it should become more legally bindingto steer innovation in a socially acceptable direction.-> At the same time, the precautionary principle should support policymakers in assessing new technological developments.
