The EU identified six active substances that do not require MRL review

foodmate 2023-02-21

 On February 2023, 2, the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) released 13 active substances that do not require review of maximum residue limits.

 
The 6 active substances are Chlorsulfuron, Epoxiconazole, brown strain Ma 43 (metarhizium brunneum strain Ma 43), vegetable oil/citronella oil (Plant oils/Citro nella oil), Straight chain Lepidopteran pheromones, and Topramezone. Some of the original articles are reported below:
 
Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 establishes the rules governing the setting and the review of pesticide maximum residue levels (MRLs) at European level. According to Article 12(1) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, EFSA shall provide within 12 mo nths from the date of the inclusion or non-inclusion of an active substance in Annex I to Directive 91/414/EEC a reaso ned opinion on the review of the existing MRLs for that active substance. Among the substances that need to be reviewed under Article 12(1) of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, EFSA identified six active substances for which a review of MRLs is no longer co nsidered necessary. EFSA prepared a statement explaining the reasons why a review of MRLs for these substances became obsolete. The relevant question numbers are considered addressed by this statement.
