In accordance with Article 43 of Regulation (EC) 396/2005, EFSA received a request from the European Commission to review the existing maximum residue levels (MRLs) for the non‐approved active substance profenofos in view of the possible lowering of the MRL. EFSA investigated the origin of the current EU MRLs. Existing EU MRLs are based on Codex Maximum Residue Limits still in place or reflect temporary MRLs set from monitoring data. EFSA performed an indicative chronic and acute dietary risk assessment for the list of MRLs to allow risk managers to take the appropriate decisions. For some commodities, further risk management discussions are required to decide which of the risk management options proposed by EFSA should be implemented in the EU MRL legislation.

In accordance with Article 43 of Regulation (EC) 396/2005, EFSA received a request from the European Commission to review the existing maximum residue levels (MRLs) for the non‐approved active substance chlorfenapyr in view of the possible lowering of the MRL set for tea. This current EU MRL is based on an import tolerance established in 2007. EFSA reviewed the toxicological data assessed by other scientific bodies, proposing toxicological reference values to be used for an indicative risk assessment, noting that the values are affected by additional, non‐standard uncertainties. According to the indicative chronic and acute dietary risk assessment the existing MRL for tea does not pose an unacceptable risk for consumers. Further risk management discussions are required to decide which of the risk management options proposed by EFSA should be implemented in the EU MRL legislation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In accordance with Article 43 of Regulation (EC) 396/2005, EFSA received a request from the European Commission to review the existing maximum residue levels (MRLs) for the non‐approved active substance diazinon in view of the possible lowering of the MRL. EFSA investigated the origin of the current EU MRLs. For existing EU MRLs that reflect previously authorised uses in the EU, or that are based on obsolete Codex MRLs, or import tolerances that are not required any longer, EFSA proposed the lowering to the limit of quantification.

Abstract In accordance with Article 43 of Regulation (EC) 396/2005, EFSA received a request from the European Commission to review the existing maximum residue levels (MRLs) for the non‐approved active substance dicofol in view of the possible lowering of the MRL. EFSA investigated the origin of the current EU MRLs. All existing EU MRLs reflect previously authorised uses in the EU or are based on obsolete Codex Maximum Residue Limits. Furthermore, in view of the limitations of the toxicological dataset and related uncertainties, the existing toxicological reference values derived at the EU level cannot be confirmed for dicofol. EFSA therefore proposed lowering all existing EU MRLs for dicofol to the limit of quantification.

The European Commission asked EFSA to provide support in the framework of Article 43 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005 for the preparation of the EU position for 54th Session of the Codex Committee on Pesticide Residues (CCPR). In the current report, EFSA provided comments and recommendations on the Codex maximum residue level (MRL) proposals derived by the Joint Meeting on Pesticide Residues (JMPR) that will be discussed in the upcoming CCPR meeting.

EFSA investigated the origin of the current EU MRLs. For existing EU MRLs that reflect previously authorised uses in the EU, or that are based on obsolete Codex maximum residue limits, or import tolerances that are not required any longer, EFSA proposed the lowering to the limit of quantification or to an alternative MRL.

In accordance with Article 43 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, EFSA received a request from the European Commission to provide support for the preparation of the EU position for the 45th session of the Codex Committee on Pesticide Residues (CCPR). In 2012, JMPR evaluated 12 active substances regarding the setting of toxicological reference values to be used in consumer risk assessment, 7 new compounds (ametoctradin, chlorfenapyr, dinotefuran, fluxapyroxad, MCPA, picoxystrobin, sedaxane) and 4 part of periodic reevaluation (benzoate, fenpropathrin, fenvalerate, glufosinate-ammonium). Regarding the setting of Maximum Residue Limits (CXLs), JMPR assessed 26 substances (ametoctradin, azoxystrobin, buprofezin, carbofuran, chlorfenapyr, chlorothalonil, cycloxydim, cyfluthrin, cyromazine, dichlorvos, dicofol, dinotefuran, fenvalerate, fludioxonil, fluopyram, fluxapyroxad, glufosinate-ammonium, imidacloprid, MCPA, methoxyfenozide, penthiopyrad, phorate, picoxystrobin, sedaxane, spinetoram and trifloxystrobin). EFSA derived comments on the JMPR evaluations regarding the acceptability of the proposed draft Codex MRLs and the toxicological reference values.

In accordance with Article 43 of Regulation (EC) No 396/2005, EFSA received a request from the European Commission to provide support for the preparation of the EU position for 46th session of the Codex Committee on Pesticide Residues (CCPR). In 2013, JMPR evaluated 10 active substances regarding the setting of toxicological reference values to be used in consumer risk assessment (diquat, chlorfenapyr, picoxystrobin, benzovindiflupyr, bixafen, fenamidone, fluesulfone, isoxaflutole, tolfenpyrad, and trinexapac) and 31 active substances regarding the setting of Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) (diquat, malathion, chlorpyrifos methyl, triazophos, glyphosate, propiconazole, bentazone, dithianon, fenpyroximate, fenbuconazole, flutriafol, cyprodinil, fludioxonil, indoxocarb, difenoconazole, pyrimethanil, azoxystrobin, chlorantraniliprole, mandipropamid, spirotetramate, cyproconazole, dicamba, sulfoxaflor, penthiopyrad, cyantraniliprole, imazapic, imazapyr, isoxaflutole, tolfenpyrad and trinexapac).

In accordance with Article 43 of Regulation (EC) 396/2005, EFSA received a request from the European Commission to provide support for the preparation of the EU position for 51st session of the Codex Committee on Pesticide Residues (CCPR). In 2018, JMPR evaluated 15 active substances regarding the setting of toxicological reference values to be used in consumer risk assessment (chlorfenapyr, ethiprole, fenpicoxamid, fluazinam, fluxapyroxad, imazalil, kresoxim‐methyl, lambda‐cyhalothrin, mandestrobin, mandipropamid, norflurazon, pydiflumetofen, pyraclostrobin, pyriofenone, tioxazafen) and 27 active substances regarding the setting of maximum residue limits (MRLs) (abamectin, bentazone, chlorfenapyr, cyantraniliprole, cyazofamid, diquat, ethiprole, fenpicoxamid, fenpyroximate, fluazinam, fludioxonil, fluxapyroxad, imazalil, isofetamid, kresoxim‐methyl, lufenuron, mandipropamid, norflurazon, oxathiapiproline, profenofos, propamocarb, pydiflumetofen, pyraclostrobin, pyriofenone, pyriproxyfen, sulfoxaflor and tioxazafen); EFSA prepared comments on the Codex MRL proposals and the proposed toxicological reference values. In addition, EFSA provided comments on follow‐up assessments of JMPR on pesticides where specific concerns were raised in the previous CCPR meetings. The current report should serve as the basis for deriving the EU position for the CCPR meeting. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

In accordance with Article 43 of Regulation (EC) 396/2005, EFSA received a request from the European Commission to provide support for the preparation of the EU position for 49th session of the Codex Committee on Pesticide Residues (CCPR). In 2016, JMPR evaluated 12 active substances regarding the setting of toxicological reference values to be used in consumer risk assessment (acibenzolar-S-methyl, fenpropimorph, fluazifop-P-butyl, fluensulfone, imazethapyr, isofetamid, oxathiapiprolin, penconazole, pendimethalin, pinoxaden, spiromesifen and teflubenzuron) and 24 active substance regarding the setting of Maximum Residue Limits (MRLs) (acibenzolar-S-methyl, benzovindiflupyr, bixafen, buprofezin, chlorantraniliprole, deltamethrin, dimethomorph, fipronil, fluazifop-P-butyl, fluensulfone, flupyradifurone, imazethapyr, isofetamid, methoprene, metrafenone, oxathiapiprolin, penconazole, pendimethalin, pinoxaden, saflufenacil, spiromesifen, sulfoxaflor, teflubenzuron and tolfenpyrad); EFSA prepared comments on the Codex MRL proposals and the proposed toxicological reference values. In addition, EFSA provided the views on follow-up assessments of JMPR on pesticides where specific concerns were raised in the previous CCPR meetings.
