New GB MRLs for sulfoxaflor amending the GB MRL Statutory Register

Regular notification 2024-12-05
G/SPS/N/GBR/74

Description

An application was received by the Health and Safety Executive to set new MRLs for sulfoxaflor in/on leaf vegetables, herbs and edible flowers (0250000), excluding witloof (0255000). Following assessment new MRLs have been introduced. The Evaluation Report supporting the new MRLs is available at the following link. A complete list of the new MRLs is available within this document, see pages 6-7: https://www.hse.gov.uk/pesticides/assets/docs/mrln-aatx-0784.pdfThe residue levels arising in food and feed from the notified uses result in consumer exposures below the toxicological reference values and therefore harmful effects on human health are not expected. As the residue levels exceed the current MRLs in force, new MRLs are being adopted.
