Description
The proposed draft Regulation concerns the review of existing MRLs for 1,4-dimethylnaphthalene, 8-hydroxyquinoline, pinoxaden and valifenalate 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 following the relevant risk assessment. The residue definition for some substances has also been updated.
