Description

The proposed draft Regulation concerns the review of existing MRLs for bupirimate, carfentrazone-ethyl, emamectin, ethirimol, and pyriofenone in certain food commodities. MRLs for these substances in certain commodities are changed: either increased or lowered. Lower MRLs are set after updating the limits of determination and/or deleting old uses which are not authorised any more in the European Union or for which a human health concern may not be excluded. The residue definition for some substances has also been updated.
