New GB MRLs for flonicamid amending the GB MRL Statutory Register

An application was received by the Health and Safety Executive to set a new MRL for beans without pods. Following assessment, a new MRL has been introduced to accommodate a new authorisation of a plant protection product in Great Britain. The Evaluation Report/Reasoned Opinion supporting the new MRL is available at the following link. A complete list of the new MRL is available within this document, see page 7: The evaluation of a new MRL for Flonicamid in or on Broad Beans (hse.gov.uk)The residue levels arising in food from the notified use 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.
