PIP: This paper reports presentations at a Nov. 1989 congress on human genetics held in Copenhagen under the auspices of the Technology Committee of the lower house of the Danish Parliament. Although the conference submitted a report to Parliament supporting the establishment of screening and advisory services for families stricken with genetic diseases, the conference did not recommend broad scale screening of the population for genetic defects. Conference members expressed a concern that less and less serious genetic defects would be the subject of testing and that the new genetic screening technology would increase the level of anxiety among prospective parents. The group also recommended legislative action to prevent genetic screening from a basis for evaluating persons for employment, pensions or insurance. The conference pointed out that Danish hospitals were planning to test 10,000 Danish women a year for cystic fibrosis genes although 90 cases of cystic fibrosis had occurred in Denmark in the past 40 years. The conference also heard reports on genetic screening in early pregnancy in the Netherlands and on plans for coordinating genetic research in the European Community. Other reports presented to the conference dealt with the interaction of genetic and environmental effects and with the possibilities of developing genetic weapons which could threaten members of a particular race or ethnic group.
