New GB MRLs for clopyralid amending the GB MRL Statutory Register

Regular notification 2025-12-09
G/SPS/N/GBR/116

Description

Clopyralid is an approved active substance in Great Britain. An application was received by the Health and Safety Executive requesting new Maximum Residue Levels (MRLs) for wheat, oat, products of animal origin and honey. Following assessment new MRLs have been introduced to set import tolerances for the commodities listed in Section 3.  The Evaluation Report/Reasoned Opinion supporting the new MRLs is available at the following link: The evaluation of new MRLs for clopyralid in or on various commodities.pdfThe 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 MRLs in force, new MRLs are being adopted.
