Clones would not fall into this category because their DNA is intended to be identical to the donor cell and thus has not been subjected to "targeted manipulation."

221. Throughout this article, the discussion has been limited to cloned animals. Here, however, the proposal is to regulate all clones, animal and plant, along with all GMOs. In light of the technological overlap and interplay between clones and GMOs, this seems most reasonable and most likely to fulfill the ultimate goal of public safety.
