Draft Commission Regulation (EU) amending Annex III to Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 of the European Parliament and of the Council as regards maximum residue levels for chlordecone in or on certain products (Text with EEA relevance)

Revision to Regular Notification 2021-05-07
G/SPS/N/EU/398/Rev.1

Description

The proposed draft Regulation concerns the review of the existing maximum residue levels (MRLs) for the substance chlordecone. MRLs for this substance are lowered. Lower MRLs are set to reflect the current monitoring data on the occurrence of chlordecone in the European Union due to the use of this persistent compound in the past.
