Jim, the issue that you were originally concerned with was:

""""""""""""I found this interesting. Information access is restricted under privacy and private property laws on the corporate side, while public funded research is available to scrutiny and challenge. I have concerns over private 'ownership' of information arrising from human genome research."""""""""""

I thought the solution is to make any changes necessary to ensure that volunteers who participate in any Publicly=Federally funded study know in advance about this privacy issue. It is their decision to make. Personally, if I were dying of cancer and thought I could be helped by a Federally-funded study, I would care less if you or somebody else could find out about my age, date of birth, marital status, etc.

What I also said was not to expand on the issue by forcing private companies to adhere to the same rules.
