The Joint House Select Committee has been given an extension for its investigations into whether Tasmania's moratorium on genetically modified organisms (GMO) should continue.
The committee's chair, David Llewellyn says a two month extension is necessary because recommendations have not been finalised due to the complexity of the issue.
Local organic farmers claim genetic technology poses too many dangers.
