it is for an universitarian translation, here is the sentence : "Alan Milburn formed a panel of experts to advise on his forthcoming genetics Green Paper."
I just found "livre blanc" but i think no reader could understand that

"livre vert" is a literal translation but you need to explain that a "green paper" is a written report of the findings of a group or an individual. Try translating that or find out if the French have an equivalent term and adopt it.

"Livre blanc" is the nearest thing to "green paper" if it is referring to a discussion document.

papier vert is literal, but livre vert in your context.
