3 The utilisation of genetic resources in terms of paragraph 1 means to conduct research and development on the genetic or biochemical composition of genetic resources, including through the application of biotechnology.

4 Access under paragraph 1 letter a is lawful, if, by virtue of the Nagoya Protocol, it is in accordance with the domestic access and benefit-sharing regulatory requirements of the Party to the Nagoya Protocol that provides the resource.

In emergencies, the Federal Council may provide for a delay in meeting the requirements for genetic resources that are pathogenic or harmful organisms.

6 The Federal Council shall regulate what information on utilised genetic resources must be recorded and passed on to subsequent users.
