4 . This Section shall not apply to foods containing material produced from genetically modified organisms in a proportion no higher than 0,5% or a lower threshold established in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 36(2), provided that this presence is adventitious or technically unavoidable. As and when advances in science and technology allow, appropriately lower thresholds shall be established.

2. This Section shall not apply to foods containing material which contains, consists of or is produced from genetically modified organisms in a proportion no higher than the thresholds established in accordance with the procedure laid down in Article 36 (2), provided that this presence is adventitious or technically unavoidable or if it is not possible to detect analytically DNA or protein which has been modified by means of genetic engineering.
