New GB MRLs for isotianil amending the GB MRL Statutory Register

Isotianil is not an approved active substance in Great Britain. An application was received by the Health and Safety Executive to set new MRLs for citrus fruit and bananas. Following assessment, new MRLs have been introduced to set Import Tolerances. The Evaluation Report/ Reasoned Opinion supporting the new MRLs is available at the following link. A complete list of the new or raised MRLs is available within this document, see page 8: The evaluation of new MRLs for isotianil in or on citrus fruits and bananas (hse.gov.uk)The residue levels arising in food 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 MRL in force, a new MRL is being adopted.
